Homework for Russian Students - 14 December 2017

Time for the weekend! I'm so looking forward to Saturday :) Here are your reminders for what to accomplish over the weekend for Russian students.

Advanced Russian:

Next week you have two assessments - one is for practice (the NEWL Field Test) and the other is for a grade (the Unit Examination). One you can study for (the Unit Examination) one you can't (the NEWL Field Test). Here are a few reminders:

  • On Monday you'll take A lunch and then report to the Dell Lab for the Field Test. Ms. Oertel will be your test proctor. You'll complete listening and reading comprehension in Russian. This is a great way to get ready for your future AP Russian exam as well as to just get a general feel for what your skills are in Russian.
  • On Wednesday you'll have your unit examination. Both classes will need to be familiar with telling time, taking about time expressions with prepositions and working with numbers. Outside of that, the exams are different. Russian II will see a lot of questions around aspect and aspectual choice. Make sure that you know when you should use perfective versus imperfective. Russian III will see questions related to reflexive pronouns and other types of pronouns. The exam will cover Chapter Five (Russian II) and Chapter Eight (Russian III) be ready!
Russian I

If you did not have the chance to finish your sentences about yourself and your friend, then make sure that you get on Google Classroom tonight to finish that work. I will import grades tomorrow and give feedback before I return the assignment to you online. The assignment is a good practice for your mini-test next week. The mini-test will focus on verb conjugation and case declensions (nominative, accusative, and prepositional). During our review in class, many of you were able to generate the right answers - keep studying and practicing. Be sure to finish your exercises and to complete the extra exercises I gave you today in order to finish your learning!
