This lesson includes drills and warmup lines, timed writings, crossword puzzle, reports, and tables using information on the new free market economy in Russia. It gives the teacher some additional materials to use in testing or as extra practice on keying various activities while the students gain a little insight into the Russia that has been emerging since 1991. It was prepared by me as a project in conjunction with a trip to Russia during the summer of 1997 on a Fulbright-Hays/PSEA Study Tour.
