Game Based Learning Resources
Welcome to Hebrew School Fun
We help students learn to read and understand Hebrew through game-based learning! Our games provide hours of purposeful, playful practice—at home or in school, including • Aleph-Bet • Prayers • Vocabulary • Holidays
Students enjoy playing up to 15 games with every deck, including favorites such as Go Fish, Memory, War, Gin Rummy, and Bingo.
Why learn Hebrew through gameplay?
Students learn best when they’re engaged. With this in mind, we’ve created educational card games that are so engaging and fun that players learn without realizing it. Our research shows that players learn the material after playing only 3 or 4 games for about 15 minutes each.
Israel's 75th Birthday
Next year Israel will celebrate its 75th anniversary.
Sharon Katz Solomon, Educational Director-Community Engagement & Development at Temple Beth Sholom Religious School, Roslyn Heights, NY, came up with a stellar idea.
She’s having her students participate in a 75 Hebrew Word Challenge. Those who learn 75 Hebrew words between now and the anniversary will be honored with a certificate of achievement.
Sharon reached out to us to work with her and her students. She also suggested we open the Challenge up to all students. We’d love your students to join us!

Amazing
My students have been using Hebrew School Fun’s game-based learning card games to learn letters, vowels, and prayers for years because they love them and learn from them.
This year I’m introducing Hebrew School Fun’s vocabulary and holiday decks because I want each student, K-6, to learn 75 words in Hebrew in celebration of Israel’s 75th birthday. I feel there’s no better way for my students to learn these words than by playing these card games with their friends and family. I wish they were a staple in every school because I’ve seen my students relax, focus, laugh and learn by playing Go Fish, Memory, War, Bingo and lots of other games using them!
They’re amazing!

Having Fun and Learning
While waiting for a flight to Tel Aviv, our aunt, a Hebrew School teacher, pulled out a deck of Hebrew cards to play with the kids. We all joined in, making the wait time go so quickly. During the trip the kids would play Old Maid or Showdown (their favorites). They loved the games and we did too, because they were having fun (and learning!), while we had time to relax.

Fun Way to Learn
Your Religious school card games are a hit with our students and teachers. They're a fun way to learn the alphabet, vowels and prayers, and they're perfect for children of all ages and abilities. Since they supplement any program, and there's no preparation time needed, they've become a staple in our school.

Learning Prayers
My students are having so much fun playing all the different games you offer! They’ve been a great learning tool, especially for learning prayers. And the best thing is that we can use them with one child, a small group or an entire class!
