Tanya Baal Peh Awards at Lubavitcher Yeshiva
<%popup(20080623-1_lrg.jpg|800|404|Click Here to Enlarge!)%>
CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] — In what was the first of its kind; over 100 boys from 1st through 4th grades memorized the entire 1st perek of Tanya and the rest of the boys are not far behind.
The plan is that every year the boys learn at least 1 perek so by the time they near their Bar Mitzvah they will already be fluent in most of the 1st 12 prokim. The first year of this pilot program has been fantastic, with most boys completing the entire first perek by heart!
