Some Russian TPR mini-stories (RE: TPR stories in Russian)

[Udut, Kenneth]

There is a high-school teacher in Alaska
who is translating the stories into Russian for
her highschool Russian class.

She is translating on the fly.

I don't want to give out her name, as she
is a busy enough woman already, but she
is allowing me to pass on what she
has so far.

Attached is most of what she has
given me so far in RTF. Apologies to
those who cannot receive attachments.

NOTE: There will be some errors
as she is using macintosh, and I'm
using windows, and we never did get
together a decent transfer system going,
so I have had to use "Cyrillic Central"
to convert from Mac Cyrillic to Win-1251,
then using Word, take out "garbage"
data from top and bottom of file,
remove some problems in the text
(I didn't catch them all since I
did it only for my usage), then I
put the English and Russian vocabulary
items in columns.  She also includes
some stories written by her students.

It's a messy file, but if you don't
mind playing with it, here it is.


P.S. - get Blaine Ray's book "Fluency through
TPR Storytelling" - I'm using the method
(along with others methods), to help learn
Russian, and really quite a good technique - simple
and interesting.
