Abstract: The choice of the topic of research can be attributed to the language changes and the shift in the Russian public consciousness caused by social cataclysms. Many problems need urgent solution, e.g. such as the state of the historically formed layer of precedent texts as an organic constituent of the verbal code of Russian culture and the acquisition of the units of this code by the linguistic consciousness of schoolchildren. The aim of the study is to prove the following hypothesis: should special analysis of the texts addressed to mass readers confirm the need for verbal precedent units, such units are to be used by a secondary school teacher as didactic material in the process of teaching the Russian language and literature. The scope of research includes newspaper headi- ngs and heading complexes (December 2000 – July 2021), created on the basis of ready-made and transformed precedent texts. A two-stage intertextual analysis conducted on the basis of the procedure of axiological interpretation of linguistic material and focused on the peculiarities of the structural organization of the schoolchild’s linguistic personality has shown that newspapers regularly use units of the verbal precedent code as effective tools for translating constants of the national culture and as means of organization of intracultural dialogue. The article describes the main types of precedent units that maintain a live connection with their sources: quotations from Russian fiction, names of authors and characters, literature titles, proverbs and sayings. The study has revealed the technologies of transformation of precedent texts, including the compressed ones, and has described grammatical (morphological and syntactic) and lexical substitutions. The description of the research material is is accompanied by the development of methods guidelines and learner-centred training tasks, including creative ones, for the target audience. It is emphasized that interpretation of the precedent texts is performed by the Russian language and literature teacher taking into account the speaking, cultural and communicative competences of schoolchildren The future research may include expanding the scope of individual knowledge of the precedent cultural code units and formation of the skills of using these units in oral and written speech.
