Our two sons each live two lives. By day, they study in Israeli schools and speak, read, and write only Hebrew. By night, they live at home where only English is spoken, read, and written. They’ve been doing this for a couple of years now, and both are in second grade. Mark turns 7 tomorrow and tonight he read the first chapter of Genesis in both Hebrew and English. We videotaped some of it and I’m posting the first minute of each, for your inspiration.<\/p>\n
