One tool I would highly recommend is something called an analytical lexicon. 
It gives a list of all the terms in Tanakh, their binyamim and what they 
mean. Then just open Tanakh and start reading.

To the scholars on this list, yes this is not scholarly, but a crutch for a 
beginner. I had one such lexicon, and I wore it out (it fell apart from use) 
but after a few years I no longer needed it. It reminded me of all the 
irregular forms, where one form may have two roots, and reminded me of much 
of the grammar besides rereading a formal grammar. My professor told me not 
to buy it, but I found it very useful. At the time, I figured just being able 
to read the text trumped being scholarly.
