The choveres of the 39 melachos is written in lashon hakodesh
with translation of difficult words interspersed in the text. The
same format is repeated for each melachah thus reinforcing the
concept of d'oraysa, toladah and issurei chazal. The illustrated
examples included are as often as possible relevant to their own
lives. The choveres should be used as part of a hilchos Shabbos
curriculum which would also include hilchos muktzah (included
separately) and a more in depth study of certain melachos. It is
a good idea to encourage students to produce scrapbooks of the
melachos as a worthwhile hands-on experience which reinforces the
material studied. It is suitable for grades 6/7. |
