The First Cosmonaut (+DVD - film). Educational Manual

The series opens with a comprehensive educational manual "The First Cosmonaut", consisting of a brochure and a film. The theme of this manual is the life and activities of the world's first cosmonaut, Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin. The texts and tasks included in the brochure are based on social, cultural, and educational vocabulary and correspond to the basic level (A2) and the I certification level (B1). They are primarily prepared using materials from the periodical press and include the biography of Yu. Gagarin, stories from colleagues, friends, and relatives of the cosmonaut. The content of the film and the texts of the brochure are interconnected: to complete the tasks, it is necessary to refer to the film.
The film is recorded on DVD and is intended for viewing on a computer or through a DVD player. The duration of the film is 14 minutes. Educational manuals of this kind are unique: they facilitate the comprehensive development of reading, listening, and speaking skills in foreign students. The visual series presented in the film is not only an illustration to the spoken text but also provides rich material for the development of oral speech skills.
