More things you will need • Vocabulary booklet (small enough to take everywhere) or Flashcards • verb booklet (library: 501 Russian verbs) • USB stick or something similar to transfer data • Walkman/tape recorder/ipod etc where you can record your own voice and let me have it on either CD, digital or tape • BUY: Dictionary • BUY: A living Russian Grammar (see library)

  6. Tracking progress and intervention Sixth form = independent, teacher GUIDED learning - Homework in ON TIME! Language learning is progressive - Continuous vocabulary learning, ediscio.com - Seek immediate clarification and feedback • Your reponsibility to catch up missed lessons • NO MORE: Miss, I didn’t know what we did last week/I didn’t know what was set as homework…

  8. Grades • Level 1 – 7, 7 being the best • Marks for - Language (How good is your Russian in terms of grammar/topic vocabulary knowledge/orthography and calligraphy?) - Content (Did you fulfil the speaking/ writing task? Did you cover all points?) - Communication (How cohesive/ logical/ understandable was your text/talk?)
