Mr and Mrs Collins and all the farm workers here at Amberton Farm welcome everyone: parents, children, teachers, students. While you’re here, you’re sure to learn a lot about how a farm works – and have a great time too! Farm life starts early (at 5.30am!) so our doors open early too. People start arriving at six o’clock. They stay all day and leave at seven in the evening. What do they do and what do they learn while they’re here? Well, they don’t have a lazy day, that’s for sure! Every day, we feed all the animals, milk the cows and collect the chickens’ eggs. We also brush the horses, move the sheep to a different field (Sally the sheepdog makes sure they don’t go to the wrong place!), plant and pick fruit and vegetables, and lots of other jobs. And the people visiting us help us do all these things too! Of course, we don’t work all the time. We have a lovely lunch at one o’clock, and tea and cake in the afternoon. There’s also lots of time to touch the animals, to see how they live, and to play with them. Young children love feeding the ducks on the duckpond. Some older children ride the horses, or take the goats for a walk. Everyone loves the baby animals. We’ve often got chicks, ducklings, calves, ponies, lambs, puppies and kittens to play with and look at. And everyone loves stroking Ned, the old donkey. He doesn’t walk or run much anymore, but he’s still happy and loves all the visitors!

Welcome to the new website for all pupils at Linton School! My name’s Angela Barker, and I’m the editor of the site. Three other pupils are helping me: Tony Warner, Tariq Sims and Paula Carter. They’re the three main reporters. No teachers work on the site, but most of them probably look at it every day, so don’t write anything rude or nasty! The website’s like a school newspaper or magazine, but it’s online. We’ve got the latest school news in the ‘News’ section. If you want to know how the school teams are doing this term, just click on the ‘Sports’ link. All future school events, including sports matches, concerts and plays are in the ‘Calendar’ section. Reviews of school plays and concerts are in the ‘Interesting articles and reviews’ section. There, we also have articles that we write, and links to other interesting articles on the internet. But we need you to write for us too! Please email us your articles, short stories or poems. And if you’ve got an opinion about something which you want to share with the whole school, please send us an email or letter. Finally, we’ve got lots of links to other similar school websites on the ‘Links’ page. We hope you enjoy the new website! Angela angela_barker@linton_school.org

This month: strange animal facts

There are lots of strange animals in the world, and there are lots of strange facts about animals too. For example …

We all love butterflies. They’re beautiful and they make us think of summer and flowers and nice things like that. But do you know how butterflies taste their food? They don’t use a mouth like we do. They use their feet! Yes, that’s right. Imagine putting your foot into a bowl of ice cream to see if it tastes nice! Strange!

Many people believe that fish – particularly goldfish – have a very short memory and can only remember things for about three seconds. In fact, it seems that goldfish can remember things for at least three months. That’s quite a long time, isn’t it? Here at ‘TeenFun’, we can’t remember what we did last week!

We found several interesting facts about crocodiles.

3 Firstly, a crocodile can’t really move its tongue. This

is because it’s stuck to the bottom of its mouth. So, a crocodile might eat you, but it won’t lick you first! Secondly, think about humans. When we’re children,

Here at ‘TeenFun Magazine’, we spend hours online each week finding out strange facts about different things. This month, we put the phrase ‘strange animals’ into Google™ and found out lots of interesting things. We think it’s all true. We hope it’s all true. But we can’t promise! If you don’t believe some of the facts, then go online yourself and see if you’re right. Let us know if we made any mistakes and we’ll let everyone know in a future copy of the magazine.

our teeth fall out. And we grow new ones, don’t we? But when we become adults, that doesn’t happen. If men or women lose teeth, the dentist has to give them new ones. But crocodiles are different. Their teeth are very sharp (of course!) but they fall out all the time – even when they’re adults. A crocodile usually has about 70 teeth in its mouth – but during its lifetime it can grow about 3,000 teeth. Yes – 3,000! That’s a lot of crocodile teeth on the bottom of the river.

We like mice. We think they’re cute and sweet. But here’s a strange fact. It’s not about a real mouse, but 4 about a famous cartoon character: Mickey Mouse. __ Well, in fact, it’s about Walt Disney, the man who created Mickey Mouse. Did you know ... that in real life Walt Disney was scared of mice? Yes, he was! Strange but true!

T/F/DS Butterflies love ice cream. T/F/DS Crocodile tongues are a strange colour. T/F/DS Crocodile tongues are stuck to the top of their mouths.

spot: Giant Mole Rat KZ KZ Culture KZ KZ Read KZthe text. What does it say about the habitat, appearance and behaviour of the giant mole rat? What did you find interesting about it? D LT

The giant mole rat is an unusual rodent found in the sandy desert areas of Kazakhstan and southern Russia. It spends most of its life underground in its burrows. It is blind as a result of its underdeveloped eyeballs, which are the size of a rice grain, that are covered by layers of skin. To make up for its disability, the giant mole rat has very sharp and functional teeth that it uses to gnaw food and dig burrows. The burrows can be extremely complex living areas – up to 1,100 feet in length! Digging such an extensive tunnel can take anything up to two months to complete. The giant mole rat digs tunnels to find new food, which usually consists of roots, foliage, earthworms and insect larvae. Once it has eaten up all the available food, it blocks up the burrow from the inside and then climbs out to dig a new one.

KZ Culture KZ KZ spot: Training a Bride Read text. Make a list of daughter’s-in-law household chores. KZthe KZ

D LT

According to the ancient Kazakh tradition, a new mother-in-law didn’t let her daughter-in-law go home until a year had passed from the day of the marriage. During this period it was her duty to educate the new bride on her new duties. Surely this must have been a difficult period for the new bride. First, she had to invent and use correctly the new nicknames for her husband’s parents. Second, she had a number of specific household duties to perform: geting up early, opening the tundik, fetching water, heating the yurt, preparing warm water for her father-in-law to wash in, and she was to close the tundik late at night. During the day she had to prepare the tea, process kumiss and cottage cheese, make kurt, wash the linen and the dishes, milk the cows and horses, gather kizyak (processed dung used as fuel), and prepare lunch and dinner: in brief she had lots of work to do. She would not be able to go to bed until very late, and only after she had done all these chores.

However, he soon realised that art was his main interest and entered the drama department of the local Academy of Arts. Sanzhar got his first high-profile role in the film The Tale of the Pink Bunny. At the same time he continued to study filmmaking in his free time. In 2010, he directed a Christmas show for a national TV channel. In May 2011, Kazakhfilm Studios sent him to New York Film Academy in Los Angeles in order to study film directing. In November 2011, he returned to LA to continue studying acting. Shortly before this, he started shooting the film Phantom Hunt, in which Sanzhar starred alongside Kristanna Loken and Armand Assante. 111

Hello, everyone! Welcome to my blog. This week, I’m going to tell you about what I did to raise money for a local charity, ‘Help the Children’. I’ve raised money for charity before. In the past, I’ve walked a long way and I’ve cooked cakes and sold them. This time, I decided to do something I’ve never done before. I decided to sit in a bath of icy water! 7 I asked my family to give me money for every minute I stayed there. I did it on Saturday, and my dad helped me. He got an old bath and ﬁlled it with very cold water! Then he put lots of ice in it! Slowly and carefully, I got into the bath. It was very cold! I sat there for 30 minutes. Then I had to get out because it was so cold. I raised over £50, and I felt very happy. Have you ever raised money for charity? Go on! It’s fun!

Altyn zhurek means a heart of gold. It’s a unique award given to both charity organisations and individuals in Kazakhstan. It was founded in 2007, in which year there were only 50 contenders for the award. That number rose to more than180 in 2017. During the10 years of its existence over 95 awards have been made, more than 110 billion tenge has been raised, 55 schools, 20 kindergartens and 35 hospitals have been built or renovated and over 3000 children have been cured of lifethreatening diseases. Ulmeken Kozhasova was an award-winner in 2016. She lives in a village in the Karaganda region. She works as a doctor. She’s given free medical aid to her fellow-villagers for over 35 years because the village is so remote that it’s difficult to get emergency medical aid from a hospital. As a result, she’s saved lots of lives.

D LT

Kazakhstan is a sovereign country with a rich past and a promising future. Nursultan Nazarbayev sees the future of the country as being tied to its people and language. According to the President, the Kazakh language should not only be preserved but standardised and further developed. More and more people living in Kazakhstan should know how to speak and write in Kazakh as well as having an understanding of Russian and English. Today, about 60% of children are taught in Kazakh, Kazakh is an obligatory subject in schools. The president says, ‘If a child started attending school in 2013, then in ten or twenty years we’ll have a whole generation of Kazakh-speaking people.’ It’s even more important to preserve the language outside Kazakhstan – in countries where there are large Kazakh communities. A good example of such a community is the one living in the Orenburg region of Russia. It comprises over 125,000 people, has 13 social-cultural associations and its own Kazakh newspaper Akap. 129

Writing database Introduction

EF PL

M SA

Before you write something in English, always ask yourself two questions: 1 What hat am I writing? Is it a letter, a postcard, a note, a magazine article, a story, a description or a profile, etc. This is important because we write different writing types in different ways. They look different on the page, and sometimes they use different language. ho is going to read what I’m writing? 2 Who This is important because we sometimes use different language with friends than when we’re writing to/for strangers. A letter to a friend should use very friendly (informal) language. Other types of writing might need to sound more serious (formal).

On the following pages, there are examples of all the different writing types in this book. Here are some basic rules to help you with your writing.

●

Articles, descriptions and stories should have a title. Paragraphs help the reader read the text. Each main idea should have its own paragraph. We often use short forms (it’s, etc) in informal writing. We use exclamation marks for emphasis and to make what we say sound exciting. We use the present simple for general situations. We use the present continuous for things happening now or around now. We use the past continuous to show a situation in progress when something happened. We use quote marks ((‘Hello!’) to show the exact words that people said. We use question marks at the end of questions. We use question tags (eg I think that’s great, don’t you?) to ask our readers to agree with us. We use can to ask the other person to do something. With letters, we use phrases to say goodbye before we write our name at the end. We don’t always write complete sentences in an informal letter. We use You should ..., ... Why don’t you ..., ... How about ... and What about ... to make suggestions. We use adjectives to describe how good something is, and to describe appearance and character. We use adverbs to describe verbs, and to describe how someone acts. We use the imperative (eg Do this!) to give instructions, to tell people what to do, and to encourage people to do something. We use the negative imperative (eg Don’t do that!) that! to give warnings. We can use then to say what happens next. We can use If you want ..., to give people a choice. We can use because to introduce a reason. We use the superlative (the best, the largest, largest, etc) to make something sound very impressive. We can use the zero conditional to talk about rules. We can use the passive voice to describe an object’s purpose. We use parentheses ( ) to give extra information.
