Dear SEELANGERS:
Recent correspondence on SEELANGS about high school textbooks and, the
question: If teachers use Glencoe/McGraw Hill's textbooks, “Russian Face to Face,
” Levels 1 and 2, what do they use in more advanced classes brings me to
write this e-mail. I hesitate to write, as a coauthor of the teaching
materials I refer to below, since authors are suspect if they recommend their own
materials. However, the materials to which I will refer to are available from
four sources and clarification on what can be obtained from each of these
sources may be of help. And, of course, I do think that they are great! Before
the answer to what materials can be used beyond Levels 1 and 2 of “Face to
Face,” here is information on those two textbooks.
TO START, REGARDING 'RUSSIAN FACE TO FACE” Level 1 FOR HIGH SCHOOLS:
The Student Text (O844243000-0), Teacher's Edition (0844243078), Student
Workbook (0844242977), Assessment Package (084424323X), and Video Program, “

Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, Customer Service Department, Telephone 1-877-833-5524,
1-800-334-7344, SEG customerservice at mcgraw-hill.com. I am not certain about the
availability of the Audiocassettes for the Teacher's Edition or the Answer Key
for the Workbook. If interested, please contact me.
