Reading and Writing After the Primer is a modern, methodologically sound resource created in New York by the teacher-methodologists at Russian Children Studio Publishing House. This course helps educators build a strong foundation in speech and language competence in bilingual children, fostering a love for the Russian language through play, exploration, and meaningful engagement with text.
