Hebrew activities and games for Kol Yisrael
Twenty chapters in one lively 80-page activity book enrich the learning in Kol Yisrael 1, 2, and 3 and Kol Yisrael Complete. Students start using the Funbook right when they begin their Kol Yisrael studies or at any time over the course of their three years of prayer study. They improve their prayer fluency and understanding—all while having fun playing Hebrew games and puzzles.

ABOUT THE SERIES:
Kol Yisrael teaches prayer literacy in a combination of book-based and online activities. In Level 1 students learn key home blessings and prayers, such as the Kiddush and Mah Nishtanah. In Level 2 students learn about community through the opening prayers in the Shabbat morning service and the Amidah. In Level 3 students prepare to become b’nai mitzvah with the Shabbat morning Torah service and concluding prayers.
Kol Yisrael Funbook: a fun way to build your students’ prayer skills—in the order of your own prayer curriculum.
