ELEMENTARY RUSSIAN УРОК 9 Unit 9 Week 2

Доброе утро! Сегодня cреда. Значит мы в лингафонном кабинете!


Cabbage soup and kasha, that's our food!
Щи да каша - пища наша!

The word "kasha" just means porridge... Каша в голове "my head's a muddle!" (literally: There's porridge in my head.) In Russia, каша is classically made from buckwheat groats, whole buckwheat seeds that have been hulled. (In other words, minimally processed.) По-русски это будет гречка! Buckwheat is a nutritional powerhouse and pretty tasty, too! 
Гречка полезна для организма.
Buckwheat's good for you! 
You saw this coming, didn't you?


Spend five minutes on new vocabulary! HERE is the Quizlet course that covers this chapter's vocabulary. 

Now, spend 10 minutes rehearsing the grammar from this chapter. HERE is ANOTHER quizlet course. Spend 10 minutes every day on this list to refine your knowledge.

Then, watch this PowerPoint presentation at least twice. It explains how TENSE and ASPECT work in English and Russian. Yeah, aspect is extremely complicated... rarely. Mostly we humans speak in the present (no aspect!), or make claims about the past (almost always perfective... it's not that you "spent time eating breakfast"... you ATE it, right?)... There are tricky moments, all of them dreamed up by teachers. Mostly it's easy. 

Your хендаут, handout: Here it is! Получите! 

Now, for listening... Давайте послушаем! Let's have a listen. (HEY! It's the perfective case expressing future!) 

Listen to these three short radio adverts; each is about a minute. First, before you even study the handout, listen "extensively" to the adverts, trying to understand broadly what the advertisements are advertising. Listen for words that you know. Then, read carefully the questions on your handout. What do you need to know? Now, listen again, this time "intensively," listening for exact information relevant to the questions on your handout. Jot down the answers that you've understood. Now, listen a third time and answer the remaining questions on your worksheet. The whole thing should take less than 15 minutes.
