So from today the history materials will be in my Tulpar channel "Tarykh sabaktary". (Search the name, it is there.) The blog stays here as an archive, with all the lessons since 2006. Colleagues can still take everything. Thank you to the…https://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2018/10/the-census.html Sat, 20 Oct 2018 20:30:00 +0600Thoughtshttps://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2018/10/the-census.html Since 14 October the census takers are going through the town. We had a young man from the district in our school yard with a folder, and he asked the director twenty-six questions. "Language at home?" "Iradi." "Religion?" The director hesitated and then said it. The young man wrote it, he did not…https://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2018/03/thirty-years.html Sun, 18 Mar 2018 19:00:00 +0600Schoolhttps://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2018/03/thirty-years.html In June it will be thirty years since I came to School No. 1, a girl of 22 with a red diploma. My first pupils have grandchildren now. Some of them were killed, in 1992 and in 2007. Some are in Chicago. One is a deputy head of the district and still writes with mistakes. All of them were my…https://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2018/03/a-women-s-lesson.html Sun, 04 Mar 2018 19:45:00 +0600Lessonshttps://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2018/03/a-women-s-lesson.html For the 8th March in my school every year the 9th class prepares a "women's lesson": not flowers, but biographies. This year they chose Toktokan the doctor, the first woman who drove a tractor on the Kara-Buura state farm (the pupils found her through the district newspaper of 1958), and their own…https://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2017/09/the-iradi-school.html Sun, 03 Sep 2017 19:30:00 +0600Schoolhttps://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2017/09/the-iradi-school.html School No. 31 in Talas now teaches every subject in Iradi, the first in Talas. Our director asked us at the teachers' council: are we ready? Mathematics in Iradi, physics in Iradi, the terms that have no Iradi words yet. Half of the council said yes, half said "in five years". I said: the history…https://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2017/05/a-tractor-and-a-bell.html Thu, 25 May 2017 12:10:00 +0600Schoolhttps://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2017/05/a-tractor-and-a-bell.html At the last bell the little first-year girl on the shoulders of the senior carried a bell, and a boy next to him told her: "Ring, it is the same bell as in Aidana's grandmother's time." It is not. It is a school bell from a shop in Talas, 120 som. The old bell from the tractor station has been…https://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2016/10/toktokan-ergesh-kyzy.html Sun, 02 Oct 2016 18:30:00 +0600Our valleyhttps://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2016/10/toktokan-ergesh-kyzy.html This year the doctor of Sary-Say died, Toktokan Ergesh kyzy. She was 78. I wrote about her list of names in 2008. In 1989 she gave her list to a newspaper, when it was still dangerous to give anything to a newspaper, and in 2000 she gave it to my school, a copy, in a folder. It lies in the lower…https://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2016/08/15-august-urkun.html Mon, 15 Aug 2016 18:00:00 +0600Lessonshttps://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2016/08/15-august-urkun.html Today is the day of memory of the Urkun. In 1916 the tsar's labour decree took the men for work behind the front; the revolt came in August; it was crushed, and thousands fled over the high passes of the Tian Shan to China, in winter, with children. Many died on the ice. For the lesson: ask the…https://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2016/04/the-district-again.html Sun, 10 Apr 2016 19:10:00 +0600Schoolhttps://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2016/04/the-district-again.html The decree on the districts is in force from July. For us nothing changes: Kara-Buura is Kara-Buura, the seat is Kyzyl-Adyr. A pity for those who live where the new lines go, they will stand in new queues. A teacher knows how it goes: a map changes in an hour, and a child learns the new names in a…https://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2015/11/about-our-girls.html Sun, 22 Nov 2015 20:10:00 +0600Thoughtshttps://blog.attelkom.net/saltanat/2015/11/about-our-girls.html Everyone in the district knows what happened this autumn to a girl from one of our villages. I will not write her name; the newspapers did not. She was strong and she escaped. The court gave a fine. I am a history teacher. In history class I tell the children that "ala kachuu", the stealing of…
