This manual of tape scripts, together with a set of foreign language audio tapes for Levels 1 and 2 Russian, was prepared to support the curriculum bulletin, "New York City Foreign Language Program for Schools: Russian, Levels 1-4." Vocabulary, repetition, transformation, and recombination drills on specific grammatical features allow further development of understanding and speaking skills. The scripts indicate change in speakers, opportunities for student response following a model, and cues for carefully controlled pattern response. Vocabulary used in the 22 scripts, each normally requiring 10 minutes for practice, introduces each lesson. Tape scripts are written in Cyrillic script. The material may be used in or out of sequence in the regular classroom or in the language laboratory. (RL)
