Kriakala for Schools
Hebrew Reading in Every Classroom
A structured Hebrew reading curriculum designed for Sunday schools, Jewish day schools, and supplementary Hebrew programs. Used by educators across the US and Israel.
Built for Every Hebrew Program
Kriakala fits seamlessly into any school's Hebrew instruction — regardless of frequency or setting.
Sunday Schools & Supplementary Programs
When Hebrew class meets once or twice a week, Kriakala bridges the gap. Children continue practicing at home with the same curriculum they're learning in class — building continuity and momentum.
Jewish Day Schools
Use Kriakala as a classroom center, homework tool, or differentiated instruction resource. The structured curriculum aligns with standard Aleph Bet and Nikud sequences used in day school Hebrew programs.
Hebrew as a Second Language (HSL)
Kriakala was built specifically for Hebrew as a second language learners — children who speak English at home and need extra support connecting sounds to letters outside the classroom.
Homeschool Hebrew Programs
For families who teach Hebrew at home, Kriakala provides a complete, educator-designed curriculum — from the first letter of the Aleph Bet to reading full Hebrew sentences.

What Educators Say
"I use Kriakala as a reading center in my class. Students ask to go to the 'Hebrew game station' — which means they're practicing without realizing it. Results after one semester have been remarkable."
"The structured progression matches exactly what we teach. I recommend parents download it for home use and I've seen students make 2–3x more progress than in previous years."
"For students who struggle with Hebrew, Kriakala gives them a low-pressure way to repeat and reinforce at their own pace. The calm design makes a real difference for anxious learners."
