For teachers and parents: how to use this sheet
- This is an unofficial practice and initial-placement sheet. It is not a test, an official assessment, or a placement tool.
- Pay attention to more than just the answers: how does the student approach the passage? Did they re-read? Did they guess or understand?
- Comfortably succeeding on most of the sheet suggests trying the next level in ongoing practice.
- Noticeable difficulty in one specific part (for example, reading) points to where more practice would help — not to the student's overall "level."
- For a professional assessment of language level, consult the school's professional staff.
A combined level-practice sheet for new immigrant students: four short parts on one page — matching words to their meanings, choosing a missing word in a sentence, a short reading passage with questions, and a short piece of free writing. The sheet gives a teacher, parent, or tutor an initial picture: what already sits well and what's worth practicing more. Important to say plainly: this is an unofficial practice and initial-placement tool. It is not a test, an official assessment, or a placement tool, and it does not set a level recognized by any official body. Pick a practice level and sheet length, print it with the answer key and teacher notes, and everything runs in your browser with no sign-up and nothing saved.
How to use this tool
- 01Pick a levelChoose beginner, basic, or intermediate to match roughly where the student is.
- 02Pick a sheet lengthChoose the short version (no writing part) or the full version (includes the writing part).
- 03Turn on teacher notes and the answer keyBoth are on by default and give guidance on how to read the results and the answers to check against.
- 04Print or generate a new sheetPrint or save as a PDF. "New sheet" draws different vocabulary, sentences, and a different reading passage for the same level.
When is this useful?
- A first impression before placementA teacher gives the sheet to a new student in the first week to get an informal read on where to start, before any official placement.
- Checking progress after a few monthsA tutor reuses the sheet at a higher level after some months of study, to see how the student handles more difficult material.
- A parent checking in at homeA parent uses the sheet informally at home to get a sense of how their child's Hebrew reading and writing is progressing.
- A quick diagnostic for a tutoring sessionA private tutor uses the short version (no writing) as a five-minute check-in at the start of a new student relationship.
Examples
- Beginner, short versionVocabulary matching, a sentence completion exercise, and a short reading passage — no writing section.
- Basic, full versionAll four parts, including a short writing prompt, at a level for students building basic sentence fluency.
- Intermediate, full versionA longer reading passage and more open-ended writing prompt for a student ready for more complex material.
Tips for a better result
- Watch the process, not just the scoreThe teacher notes specifically suggest watching how the student approaches the passage — do they re-read, guess, or clearly understand — not just counting correct answers.
- Use it to find where to practice, not to label a studentDifficulty in one specific part points to what to practice more, not to an overall label for the student.
- Never treat it as an official placement resultFor an actual professional assessment of language level, the sheet itself says to consult the school's professional staff.
- Generate a few sheets over timeBecause "new sheet" draws different content each time, the same level can be reused later to check progress without repeating the exact same material.
