Russian in Germany: bilinguals & home schooling

📖 Lesson ──▶ 🎯 Quiz — pick the translation ──▶ ✅ Lesson done

~3 million Russian speakers in Germany — largest minority. Bilingual child: Russian at home, kindergarten/school German. Risk: both languages half-empty, „two lame languages“. Strategy: parent — one language, 15 min/day read aloud, Saturday school (every big city), holidays in the language environment. Plus: bilinguals — better memory, better math, free choice.

●„One parent — one language“: don’t mix in one sentence
●Russian fairy tales = free „trainer“ of the mother tongue
●Abitur-Russian = exam as a foreign language

🌍 Bilinguals train „smart muscles“: in studies, children with two languages solve switch tasks 200 ms faster — lifelong brain training.
