In recent years an increasing number of secondary schools have offered Russian as an elective. Locally developed courses of study have been prepared and submitted to the Department for approval.The rate of growth of such local courses and the demand for guidance in setting up appropriate
equences resulted in the initiation of a Russian project. Preliminary sections of this syllabus were duplicated and sent to schools having approved Russian courses.These materials in revised form have been incorporated in this first complete edition.Since this syllabus represents a first attempt in defining asequence in Russian it is subject to revision and refinement on the basis of experience of teachers in the classroom. Russian for Secondary Schools follows the same formates the series in French,German, and Spanish.The complete text is not included in this publication;hence it is necessary for the reader to refer to one of the other syllabuses for the sections which apply generally to the teaching of all the modern languages.References to omitted sections may be found in the table of contents and at appropriate points in the text.
