County Board of Public Instruction, Division of Instruction. In that course, the section on
expansion of materials deals with the problems of pronunciation and reading and writing
Cyrillic print and script. For continuation or reinforcement of these skills, you may find it
profitable to utilize materials from that course.Both units presented in this course utilize typical audio-lingual methods, A review of
these methods and procedures prior to instruction will prove beneficial.While the text authors suggest that a unit can be completed in 10-12 days, actual
classroom experience has shown that the materials require at least twice that amount of time.
The teacher's edition provides the teacher with simple quizzes to indicate student progress
toward completion of the unit. There is an exercise workbook and a testing manual which are
helpful to the teacher as well.The authors of this quinmester feel that the teacher's edition and supplementary materials
provide thorough expansion of text content. The inclusion of independent research and song
singing will broaden the students' exposure to the target culture.Should time remain after the objectives of this course are met, proceed to the next
unit.Sample evaluation(coded to course objectives)L-1You will hear ten Russian words. In the pause after each word, indicate whether
the "Л" sound in the word is soft or hard. Use the letter S for soft; G for
hard.1.пошли6.баскетбол2.отлично7.болен3.делать8.журнал4.плохо9.пластинки5.фильм10.телефонL-2Repeat the following sentences after the model. The teacher will evaluate each
sentence to be either understandable or not understandable (to a native speaker). If
not understandable, the teacher will mark the proper column to indicate a specific
problem.
