Sesame Street in Israel (Listening Comprehension)

Hello everyone!

Rechov Sumsum (רחוב סומסום) is an Israeli educational television program for preschoolers, based on the American program "Sesame Street".

First aired as Rechov Sumsum, in 1998 an attempt at an Israeli/Palestinian co-production was launched, with a mixture of Israeli and Arab actors (and Muppets), continuing as Rechov Sumsum in Israel (in Hebrew) and shown in Palestine as Shara'a Simsim.

The first three series of the show were a joint production of the Israeli educational television and the CTW, a Worldwide American non-profit organization which has been co-producing the original American "Sesame Street" since 1969. (*)

Today we bring you a report originaled aired by Australia's ABC Radio on Rechov Somsum. May you find it useful and engaging.
