Hi Etniers,

The answer is a definite YES!

We had a problem in our high school this year because the counselors
were under the impression that kids needed a special assessment for
English in order to receive "Hakraat sheelon" in English - which is
the use of a CD or MP3. After many phones calls and emails between
myself and Aharona Gvaryahu, Judy Steiner and our school principal I
can assure everyone that anything given on an assessment (levels 1 and
2) including spelling and Hakraat Sheelon, for Hebrew subjects is
automatically given for English as well.
The only reason a student might want a specific assessment for English
at these levels is if s/he wants something extra for English such as
an electronic dictionary.

The person to contact if you are still unsure is Aharona.

Enjoy life,
Patricia
