Kazagymnyn Adebieti Project

On World Book and Copyright Day, Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools launched a large-scale project entitled “Kazagymnyn Adebieti”, dedicated to the Kazakh literature.

In all NIS, school students and teachers met with famous writers and poets, and parents could watch a single lesson of literature live on school You Tube channels and other Internet platforms. Kazagymnyn Adebieti Project logically integrates with all the literary and social projects of NIS - Uly dala akyndary, Zamandastar zhyrlary, Menin omirimde koldanylatyn makal-matelder, Wikipedia, READx, Urpaktar sabaktastygy, Kogamga kyzmet etu, Gylymi orta, Danalyk beisenbi, 100 an, 100 kui.

Nazarbayev Intellectual School of Ust-Kamenogorsk city invited the following honored persons to the literary and musical event “Talantymen tabyndyrgan kalamgerler”:

- a native of Tarbagatai district, a poet, an honorary citizen of East Kazakhstan region - Arimbek Maseluly

- a native of Katon-Karagai district, a journalist, a writer, a member of the Union of Writers of Kazakhstan - Alibek Kantarbayev

- a native of Abai district, a poet, a member of the Union of Writers of Kazakhstan - Kalkaman Sarin

The meeting included two blocks. The first block presented video clips about the life and work of the guests to the audience. After that, the school students sang a song, read a poem and an excerpt from the work, which authors are invited guests.

In the second block there was a live interview between the guests and the audience. The school students asked questions not only about the creativity of the guests, but also about their work activities. It was very interesting to listen to the story of Alibek Kantarbayev about Oralkhan Bokei, with whom he was personally acquainted.

Arimbek Masalov told about the history of writing the song “Kazakhstan-Kazakh Elim”, which became the hallmark of our vocalists. It was with this song that the vocal-pop group NIS of Ust-Kamenogorsk won several prizes in Republican competitions.

The students asked Kalkaman Sarin to evaluate the works of contemporary poets. The poet replied that “Poetry is multifaceted, like any kind of art, it must move with the times, and there will be a reader for each work.”

More than twenty meetings on World Book and Copyright Day, which can be called a single lesson of literature, became a logical continuation of all NIS book projects and supported the interest of the school community in reading.
