QUEST «PLAY AND KNOW»

Contribution of only teachers and educators to upbringing is not enough to educate a competitive personality in the modern world. Therefore, support from parents is very important. It would be fine if the parents took part both in the educational process and in school-wide events. Taking it into account a sports and intellectual event quest “Play and Know” was organized in the domitory of Nazarbayev Intellectual School in Semey in which the teachers, pupils and parents participated.
This event not only stregthened tutor-student-parent relationship, but also placed emphasis on a healthy lifestyle and the development of creative abilities. It also calls for respect to the culture and traditions of other peoples, the assimilation of trilingualism, the promotion of Kazakh national games and active participation in games.
Teams of the 7-12th grade students «Diamond», «Flash», «Oranges», «Friendship», «Power» together with the teachers were able to pass through all the prepared relay races without hindrance.
At the first stage, according to the conditions of the “Merry Starts”, the speed and dexterity of the students were checked.
The second stage included the intellectual tasks with which the teams coped very quickly and easily. A special routing sheet was created for them where they had to go through five points. At each point they got new tasks. There were both logical and mathematical problems, riddles and proverbs were asked in three languages. And all these tasks were limited by the time frame. With the passage of each point the team spirit in the children was noticed, they together tried to do everything quickly and very well. At each point, each student did certain tasks and thereby saving time they overcame each point.
Such competitions as “Guess the Melody”, “Magic Brush”, “Guess the Puzzle” were organized for fans and spectators .
Upon completion of the sports and intellectual part of the event, jury members, which included the students of the 12th grade, summed up the results and awarded diplomas to the three teams. The winner of the event was the team “Power” (tutor Beisembaeva Zh.), the second place was given to the team “Friendship” (tutor Kasimova K.) and in the third place was the team “Flash” (Durmekbayeva AT). All participants were given certificates and small gifts.

November 24, 2017 a sports and intellectual game quest “Play and know” was organized at school NIS Semey.
I would like to share my impressions and express my gratitude to the whole united pedagogical staff of the NIS hostel for the interesting idea of the event, creating a warm atmosphere. Such tournaments bring children and parents closer, teach trust, mutual help and work in a team. Children tested their knowledge in solving logical problems in three languages. They were fans of their teams, supported each other and cheered together. Strategy and tactics of the game were developed by them.
It was very fun, everyone was satisfied. Children were awarded with sweets. I am sure that such events will remain in the memory of the participants for a long time!

In general, I really liked the organization and performance of the competition.

Execution of tasks of fun starts took 40 minutes, and the quest after it lasted 30 minutes. All this took place in a game form which was pleasant for children and parents. As a result of the competition, prizes and diplomas were given, each of us got certificates. The children were happy! We got pleasant and vivid impressions from the competition .

A student of the 11″K” grade Gadylbekov Nazym:
I really liked Quest “Play and know”. Firstly, it brought great benefit to students like me who spend all their time on work and do not have time to do sports physically. Secondly, we were united by the team members of teams, because the teams were of different ages. Thirdly, we received a lot of positive emotions and splashed out all negative emotions by playing, jumping. I believe that in the future it is necessary to see events of this kind as often as possible and to involve all students in the hostel.

I was one of the jury members in the game quest. This day was very interesting. In this game each member of the team was able to show his activity and show the ability of abstract thinking. In my opinion, this day will leave its imprint in the memory of the students.

The game quest left wonderful impression in the soul of each student and parent. The event was prepared at the highest level. Students and parents united in several teams showed great activity in the sports relay races. The educators who organized this event were also fans, thereby creating team spirit. Some students of the senior classes who were not members of the jury took part in organizing the event, sang songs, danced. The participants of the teams after the sports contests started to perform intellectual tasks. At the end of the event, each student was awarded certificates and small gifts. Undoubtedly this day will remain in everyone’s memory, because it brought a lot of positive impressions and filled us with positive energy.
