Aleph Champs

Chabad Hebrew School is excited to implement the Aleph Champ Reading Program, inspired by the martial arts philosophy of colour-coded levels and testing. This program motivates and inspires students to progress at their own pace. Beginning with the white level, where they practice the first half of the aleph-bet, children advance through ten levels, culminating in fluent reading.

Below is a breakdown of the levels, allowing you to track your child’s progress. Each child will receive an Aleph Champ home kit, enabling them to practice their level at home and advance. As they move to the next level, they will return the current kit items to the school and receive the new level items.

Children will be tested three times a year, with opportunities to advance a level during these assessments. To keep them motivated between testing times, they will earn three stripes per level. Award ceremonies, scheduled three times a year as noted in the school calendar, celebrate their achievements.
