I am looking for a Russian textbook for kids or teenagers. Does any one know if there is such a thing and if so, where can I find one??Thank you.

Excuses, excuses...

I was wondering if there was a possible equivalent in Russian for this...

So, imagine a guy asks a girl out on a date. The girl is not interested, but the guy is persistent, so she has to come up with an excuse. In English, the excuse is almost always "I have to wash my hair." I doubt this happens in real life (poor guy), but it's kind of a joke, or a stereotypical situation...

Is there an equivalent phrase in Russian? Just wondering :) Thanks!

Could someone please either translate this for me or direct me to an english translation of the song

Peter and the Wolf

привет!

I have been looking desperately for the script of Peter and the Wolf (пётя и волк) by Prokofiev, in the original Russian. I managed to find a great recording, but my listening skills aren't that great, and it really helps me to follow along. So if anyone knows where a script would be, please let me know!

спасибо!

I'm helping a friend out who is doing a project on the Russian language for one of her teaching classes, and she asked me something I thought maybe you people could help on. I do need both russian text and english translation. I need 10 statements, questions, and such that a teacher should know if he or she were to have a russian student or something. Basically, what are some phrases to know if you didn't speak russian but needed to talk to a russian student.
examples-
the bathroom is....
Stop!
Be quiet (polite and less polite ways)
sit down
do you understand?
How much English do you know?
Were you in school in Russia?

Thanks a bunch!

( here's what I've given her so far )
