### sense in the lessons

Interpretation: The letters are taken as a pattern or archetype from which things are made. Sefer Yetzirah says the double letters show opposites such as soft and hard, strength and weakness. In the primary lessons: things built or counted; a smaller copy at a scale; in science: a model of the solar system or a volcano; in maths: bar models and place-value models to show a problem; in art: modelling clay; phrases: «role model», «scale model», «model answer»
