Hebrew in Harmony is a groundbreaking way to teach Hebrew prayer that uses the music of today's favorite Jewish musicians to help kids build an emotional connection to prayer while they learn not just the rote sounds, but the meaning as well.
The curriculum is easy to use: There is a fully scripted curriculum core, and no actual musical knowledge is required to teach it (The musicians do that part for you!). The curriculum is flexible across a variety of learning environments including distance learning, and its combination of visual, aural, and kinesthetic techniques meet a broad array of learning needs.
The powerful tool of music helps you create a joyful atmosphere for learning while establishing long term memories that engender strong retention. Incomparable hosts Noah Aronson and Eliana Light introduce students to over 50 top Jewish musicians.
Each 16-page student booklet serves as a personal prayer learning journal focusing on one prayer through Hebrew reading practice, drawing, music interpretations, and a variety of other prompts for reflection and meaning-making based on the themes of the prayer. It is key to each learner's experience.
Be sure to check out the Hebrew in Harmony App (sold separately), which is where the actual music for the program lives and can be used on any device--tablets, smartphones, or computers. Another key part of the program is the Curriculum Core, which provides three fully scripted lessons for each prayer in the program as well as answer keys, words cards, song lyrics and a variety of mindfulness, art, and movement activities.
Don't forget the full Curriculum Core for each of your teachers (sold separately), with scripted lessons and step by step instructions that help you make the most of the Hebrew in Harmony program in any venue--in person, online, in tutorials, or in a hybrid model.

Included in the Series
What exactly am I purchasing?
You are purchasing a package that includes a physical copy of the book PLUS access to an enhanced digital turn-page version of the book, with permission to share it with one student in a remote learning setting.
You have access to the turn-page version for one year. The turn-page version is an exact duplicate of the physical book, including the same page numbering. We’ve enhanced it by also including teaching tips unique to the material and selected printable PDF pages for students’ use.
Are turn-page materials returnable?
The print portion of a turn-page package is returnable. The digital turn-page portion of the package is NOT returnable.
Do I need to purchase a turn-page package for each student?
Yes. Turn-page access is not a replacement for a physical book. It is a tool to help teachers in remote learning environments. Students need their materials whether they’re learning remotely or in-person.
Do I need to purchase a turn-page package for each teacher?
No. Access to the turn-page version is provided based on the number of students you wish to use it with. For example, if you have 10 students in a class, you would purchase 10 turn-page sets (you will get 10 physical books + permission to use the turn-page version with 10 students). The turn-page access can then be shared with any teacher(s) or madrichim working directly with those 10 students, at no additional charge.
If the teacher is sharing their screen to show the turn-page version, why do I need to purchase multiple copies?
You are not purchasing multiple copies of the turn-page version. You are paying for permission to use the turn-page version with a certain number of students. In other words, purchases are made according to the number of people who are viewing the turn-page version, not how many are showing it.
Can I purchase access to the turn-page version separately from the physical book?
No. Access to the turn-page version is combined with a physical book. Turn-page access is not a replacement for a physical book. It is designed to make it simpler for teachers to work with learners remotely, guiding their learning. Even in remote learning settings, ideal learning is multi-modal. When learners have the physical materials, they have more control over their learning, can see the material in person, can more easily work with others in breakout groups, and better complete independent work away from the screen.
Having the print materials also ensures that you can maintain continuity in programming regardless of where your learners are meeting. This is especially important if you might be switching between remote and in-person learning. Having the physical book also gets children away from their screens and guides them through hands-on activities.
After I purchase the turn-page package, how do I access the digital version?
Log in to the account on behrmanhouse.com from which you made the purchase. From the top menu, click Account. Then click My Downloadable Products from the menu on the left. Select the item you wish to use.
Do teachers or students need a Behrman House account to view the turn-page version?
No. The person who made the purchase can share the link directly with the teacher (see above). The link immediately opens the turn-page version, and teachers can then share their screens on video conference platforms with the students for whom access was purchased. Students are not likely to need direct access to the turn-page themselves. They will have their physical copies for independent work, chevruta work in breakout groups, etc.
Can I see a sample of the turn-page to try it out?
As with all our student materials, you are invited to order a copy at a 30% discount for review. This will allow you to try it out and test out the process for purchase, access, and use of the materials – so you can feel comfortable knowing exactly how it all works. Contact customersupport@behrmanhouse.com to request your review copies.
We have books left over from last year or have already placed our order for this school year. Do we have to buy the books again to have turn-page access?
Please contact customersupport@behrmanhouse.com and we’ll work with you make sure you have just what you need.
