This course is designed to continue refining students’
practice of speaking, listening, reading and writing in Russian. The focus is
on the continuing acquisition of advanced grammar, pertinent vocabulary as well
as reading and conversational skills enabling students to communicate
effectively within the topics of everyday importance. Accuracy in using basic
grammar constructions in speaking and writing in Russian is pursued and
encouraged. Advanced grammar constructions are introduced through a wide
variety of adapted texts and contexts. In addition to textbook material,
students will be assigned readings of authentic and adapted Russian literary and
journalistic texts: pertinent discussions, assignments as well as written and
oral responses will entail elements of literary analysis and critique. Class
