Dialog 1.6 is a mini-lesson. All it does it introduce three “host family” characters by their name, patronymic, and last (family) names. Listen (and repeat!! ) to the 3 slides of the text of 1.6 and review the “немного о языке” about naming conventions.
Meanwhile, make flashcards: Go to словарь, unit 1, episodes 1.1 – 1.6 (not that it lines up with 1.10 right after 1.1 don’t let that throw you). Get a pile of index cards and write out every word or phrase that you think anyone might have the slightest doubt about (you can leave out да, нет) (Put the English on the other side). BRING YOUR HOMEMADE FLASHCARDS TO CLASS.
