Practical recommendations: how to make the school newspaper interesting. Types of transport and the amount of travel discount when using a student's social card

students general educational institutions- a special category of citizens. The state is trying to support children and their parents with special measures to make education accessible. One of these measures is the issuance of travel cards for schoolchildren.

Many have to travel to school by public transport: a suitable educational institution often located in a remote area. Often with transfers. Travel expenses reduce the family budget, already suffering from textbook purchases, school uniform and office.

The Ministry of Education and regional authorities, cooperating with carriers, organize the issuance of travel cards so that parents can save on the child's travel to school, section and back home. With regular use of benefits, a decent amount remains in the family budget.

What is a school pass

Travel tickets are documents that give their holder the right to pay for travel in public transport at a discount or ride it for free. They are given to all students. Benefits do not apply to trips with private carriers (for example, fixed-route taxis).

The sale and issue of travel cards for schoolchildren is regulated by regional legislation. Therefore, in different regions, the conditions for obtaining and using, the cost, the size of the discount on travel and other nuances can vary greatly from each other.


Tip: For up-to-date and up-to-date information on the effect of benefits in the region, contact the school administration. The secretary will tell you what the child is entitled to and how to get it. Two more options are to contact hotline ministry of education or the city's public transport organization.

Travel cards can be divided into 2 types:

  1. Giving the right to preferential travel on several types of public transport. This is useful when the child travels around the city a lot with transfers.
  2. Giving the right to travel with a privilege on 1 type of public transport. Bus companies, tram depots or the subway issue their travel cards.

When choosing a school pass, you need to analyze how many modes of transport and how often the child uses. Sometimes it makes no sense to buy a general travel card if the student only travels by metro, and travels by bus a couple of times a month.

How does the pass work?

Travel cards differ from a financial point of view:

  1. Free, intended for schoolchildren who belong to "special categories of citizens." For example, these are orphans: they travel by public transport for free, because they are fully supported by the state.
  2. Electronic cards, which are usually issued free of charge. They need to be replenished on their own so that the account has enough money to pay. The only drawback of electronic travel cards is that urban transport must be equipped with modern validators that can read card data. Large cities can boast of such innovations.
  3. Standard travel card for a month with trips at a discount. It is gradually being phased out and is being replaced by an electronic version.

Any type of travel card for schoolchildren is valid only during the school year. Its scope is established by the legislation of the region. The usual grace period for school students is from 1 September to 15 June.

The issued electronic cards are nominal. Pass them on to friends or use someone else's. A photograph of the child is placed on the preferential travel or accompanying document in order to exclude fraud.

Examples of travel cards in the regions

Although the regional rules for obtaining and using school passes differ, they have a lot in common:

  1. "Student Social Card" (Moscow) is a multifunctional plastic card that appeared in 2014. In addition to preferential travel, you need to make an appointment with a doctor, pay for meals in the canteen and purchases. All schoolchildren studying in institutions in Moscow can receive it. The place of residence does not matter. Parents put money on the card, which the child uses to pay for the road. A trip to the metro for 1 month costs 380 rubles, and for land transport- 250 rubles.
  2. Oriole (Tver). Electronic card with 3 tariffs: "Single" - 580 rubles; for 2 types of transport - 475 rubles; for 1 type of transport - 285 rubles. Prices for 1 month.
  3. WITH " Transport Card schoolchild" (Nizhny Novgorod) you can ride buses, trams, trolleybuses and the metro for free for 920 rubles a month. The choice of one of these modes of transport will cost 500 rubles.
  4. The cost of a reduced fare for a single student ticket in St. Petersburg is 515 rubles.

In all major cities In Russia, travel passes have been introduced that are valid for several types of transport, so that it is more convenient for a student to move around the city and save money.


How to get a school pass

The ticket is sold at special points or ticket offices. Before that, you need to take care of the collection required documents. Their list by region can vary greatly.

But everywhere a certificate from the place of study, drawn up in a generally accepted format, is required. It is obtained from the secretariat of the school. The certificate requires:

  • Full name of the student;
  • legal address of the educational institution;
  • bank details of the institution;
  • school principal's signature;
  • stamp seal.

If the document does not meet these requirements, then the place of issue of the travel card will be refused. You will have to go to the secretariat again and draw up a new certificate.


You may also need:

  1. Photocopy of birth certificate or passport;
  2. CHI policy;
  3. SNILS card;
  4. Passport of one of the parents or guardians;
  5. A photograph of the child in printed or electronic form (depending on the method of printing the travel card) 3 × 4 cm in size.
  6. Sometimes you need a valid student ID with a photo and information from the school. Usually it is required in small cities that do not have the technical capabilities to introduce electronic cards. Their residents use standard cards without a photo, in which only the name of the owner is indicated. A student card with a photo is required for the child to prove their identity.

Not having a student card is not a problem. It can be issued in a few days at the school office. You need to buy the ticket form in advance and take a photo “on the student’s”. In the office they will paste a picture, put a signature and official seal of the institution. The student card is valid for 1 year, and then it can be extended until graduation.

In some regions, it is strictly stipulated that the presence of a student when submitting documents is mandatory. The term for issuing a travel card will take 14-30 days, so it is recommended to take care of its purchase in time.

How to use


A student with a travel card uses the types of transport for which the validity of the document is extended free of charge. On others, he will have to pay the full price of the ticket.

If the transport is equipped with a special device that reads the data of an electronic card, then it is enough to attach it to the validator. In transport with a conductor, you need to show a travel card and, if asked, a student card with a photo.

Tip: It is important not to miss the time of the next payment and put money on the card. Even if you miss only 1 day of payment for the next month, the child will not be able to leave for school and will miss lessons.

An electronic card issued for 1 year can be extended without reissuing a new one. You need to take a certificate from the school that the child continues to study, and again come to the ticket office.

Of course, children actively lose travel cards. E-card is easy to restore. If a child reported missing, you need to:

  • call the customer service number of the company that issued the card and ask to block the loss;
  • come to the point of issue and write an application;
  • pay for the issue of a new card (usually 100 rubles);
  • get a temporary travel card;
  • get a new electronic card after a while.

Old information, balance and already paid services will be saved.

In addition to obtaining a travel card for the city public transport, the child can enjoy benefits for the purchase of rail and air tickets. Schoolchildren are also entitled to a discount on visiting museums, theaters and other cultural and educational institutions. To receive benefits, you need to present a student card or a certificate drawn up in accordance with all the rules.

Some school supplies can be easily made with your own hands - all you need is patience and a little imagination. The child together with you can have an exciting time in the creative process. In addition, the student will have exclusive stationery, which will surely arouse admiration among peers.

For parents, this is a great way to save money - pencil cases, coasters and covers are now quite expensive in stores, and their creation from improvised materials will cost much less. In this article, you will find some step-by-step instructions for creating DIY stationery.

DIY pencil case

With due perseverance, you can make a beautiful school pencil case. It is better if the house has a sewing machine - with the help of adults, a child can make only a few seams on it, and a stylish pencil case will be ready. However, if there is no machine, you can make a few stitches on your hands, fasten the parts of the pencil case with ribbons, buttons or a stapler. Consider how you can make a pencil case:

  • First, choose the material for the pencil case. Any dense fabric, leather or leatherette, felt or nubuck will do. Surely you have old unnecessary clothes or shoes that can be given a second life. A pencil case does not require much material at all - count your pencils and pens and determine how much space they will need.
  • The easiest option is a pencil case. It resembles a small bag in which all accessories will be placed. This model is suitable if you do not have too many necessary accessories, otherwise the child will constantly get confused in them. Making such a pencil case is simple - fold a square or rectangular piece of material in half, sweep the edges if necessary. Then make two seams on the sides or tightly fasten the material with a stapler. One side should be left open. You can make several holes on it and fasten it with buttons or beautiful ribbons.
  • If there are a lot of accessories, separate pockets should be made in the pencil case. Such a pencil case should be a little wider - you can make it according to the format of a notebook by folding the material in half or three times. Finish the edges and figure out how you will close the pencil case - thread a ribbon or sew on a button. Then make pockets inside the pencil case. They can be arranged by bending the lower edge of the pencil case inward and making several vertical lines on a typewriter in different places. You can carefully sew the pockets by hand with colored threads. If there is not enough material, pockets should be made overhead from another fabric - this will only make the design more interesting.
  • Any pencil case can be further decorated. This will be especially interesting for girls - they can stick rhinestones on it, sew on beads or make flowers from the remnants of the fabric.

DIY notebook

You can make an unusual notebook on your own with a child. For Russian or mathematics lessons, you can use unused sheets from old notebooks, and if the subject does not require compliance with rulers and cells, a notebook can be made from ordinary A4 sheets. The technology is very simple:

  • Choose what sheets you are going to make a notebook from. The paper must be the same size.
  • If these are A4 sheets, fold all of these sheets in half. In the middle they should be fastened with two seams or a stapler. If you have A5 paper, then you should not bend it - just fold it in a pile and also fasten or sew along the left edge.
  • The most creative process is the creation of the cover. The child will certainly be interested in doing design on their own. Before starting, evaluate the size of the notebook - if it is thin, an A4 sheet is enough for the cover. If the notebook is thick, the cover should be slightly longer.
  • The basis of the cover should be made of flexible thin cardboard - so the notebook will be durable and easy to use. It can be decorated in different ways. For example, the cover will look good if you paste over it with gift paper. You can decorate it with applique, pieces of fabric, beads and ribbons.
  • Attach the cover to the notebook with a stapler or thread.


DIY notebook cover

Schools now require notebooks and textbooks to be wrapped in additional covers. Indeed, children do not always treat their belongings with care, but for a whole academic year they may fray or tear. For this purpose, the covers of their polyethylene are sold in stationery stores. You can do similar things with your own hands. The easiest option is to make a cover from a transparent bag, simply wrapping it around the book and securing the cover with a stapler in the right places. However, you can also make a really beautiful and interesting cover - for example, from polyethylene or artificial leather. It is very easy:

  • Cut out a rectangular piece of the material you like. In width, it should be 1 cm more than the height of the book, and in length - 5-6 cm more than the spread of the book. These allowances are needed to wrap the book and hold the cover together.
  • Put an open book on the cover. Fold the leather or oilcloth over on both sides so that they wrap around the edges of the cover. You can fasten the edges on top with a stapler, but it is best to make several seams.
  • The cover can be decorated in different ways. For example, you can attach a pocket of the same material to it, make a beautiful signature, glue bows from ribbons, appliqués or beads.


Do-it-yourself book or tablet stand

Working with a textbook is much more convenient if it is located on a special stand. It is also now increasingly common for middle and high school students to use tablets in school for reading, creating presentations or taking notes. You can make a convenient multifunctional stand for both a tablet and a book with your own hands using thick wire:

  • Take the wire. It should bend easily under force, but not bend itself under weight.
  • Usually stands are arranged as follows - they have a narrow support at the back and two diverging supports at the front, on which a tablet or book is placed.
  • Bend the wire into an elongated semicircle and pull it back.
  • Take the two ends of the wire and bend them into a triangle so that one corner goes up. So you prepare a place for a tablet or book.
  • Bend both ends in a semicircle parallel to the table surface.
  • Pull the tips back behind a narrow support and make a neat knot on it.


From improvised materials you can make interesting, convenient and simple school supplies. This will help you save a lot when collecting your child for school. In addition, you will surely enjoy the process of co-creation, and as a result, you will make unique accessories that no one else at school will have.

Steps

    Get your pencil case in order. Believe it or not, a properly organized pencil case is a step towards becoming a good student. The neater your pencil case, the less time you will spend looking for a pencil or pen, the faster you will write down notes and the more attentively you will be able to listen to the teacher. Choose a school pencil case with several compartments so that you can sort all the supplies into their places.

    • Your pencil case should contain at least three pencils, three pens, an eraser, and a highlighter. Depending on how you prefer to keep notes in your notebook, you can also put different colored pens, colored markers and sticky notes (sticky notes) into the pencil case.
  1. Sort your notes into different colored folders or different blocks/binders. It will be useful to organize one folder (or one notebook block) for each school subject so that all your notebooks, notes and notes are not mixed up and lost. Select a color for each item and sign each folder or block / folder.

    In each folder or notebook, label different sections. For example, you can use colored dividers for a block notebook so that you can divide your independent work, lectures and homework. Thus, when the teacher asks you homework, you will know exactly where it should be. Separating records will also help you sort them into chronological order- in the future, this will facilitate the study of the subject.

    Always know where your things are. There is no "right" or "wrong" way to organize your backpack - it's just important to know where everything is. Put all your belongings in one place and return them to their place after use. Even if the bell rings and you need to rush to change, take a couple of seconds to put things back in their places so that you can quickly find them later.

    Prepare all necessary supplies in advance. The preparation is most of organization process. If you run out of paper, pencils, or whatever, buy spares ahead of time or ask your parents about it. Put new pencils / paper and other things in a pencil case or briefcase so you don't forget them at home!

    • Always make sure you have enough pencils, pens, paper, and other stationery to keep all of these things close at hand. It is better to spend time not looking for these things or asking you to lend them to you, but studying the subject.

Write reminders

  1. Write dates on the pages. As soon as you start taking some notes or writing down your homework, write the date at the top of the page and enter the same date in your diary. Make sure you see this date when you use your diary so you know exactly when you need to turn in an essay or other assignment.

    Don't forget your responsibilities. Start working or completing a project as soon as you understand what's what. Do a little each day so you don't leave your assignments and projects to the last minute. If you do a little bit every day, you won't run into any surprises, you'll know exactly how long the project will take, and you'll be able to get it ready by the deadline.

Different design options for homemade pencil cases: Video

The famous German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer said: "The newspaper is the second hand of history." And what is sk. newspaper? What is its main function? Maybe this is a platform for self-expression of creative students? Or a school history? By thinking deeply WHY you are creating a newspaper, you can avoid many mistakes at the stage of creating a publication.

One of them is that the newspaper becomes the paper version of the school website. Do you think the reader will be interested in the information that he has already read a few days before the release of the "new" issue? The answer is obvious. Tip number 1: the newspaper should not duplicate information from the school website.

And from other sites on the Internet too. The history of holidays, horoscopes, poster of events - all this is not directly related to school life. Write original, original articles. Create an exclusive! Your content must be unique. And that's rule number 2.

So what to write about, you ask? The answer is simple: write about YOUR school. And the more uninteresting this information will be for readers not associated with your publication, the better. Let the notorious “everyone has it and it is necessary” be the reason for creating the newspaper. Create it with passion!

Tip #3: One number one topic. This approach allows you to arrange the material logically, sequentially. The chosen problem can be consecrated completely, from all sides. There are many examples of topics: adaptation, success, family, food.

Using the last topic as an example, I will tell you what information can be used for a newspaper. For example, you can conduct a survey and find out: what is the most favorite dish in the dining room for schoolchildren? And then take the recipe for this dish from the chefs. Recipes for favorite dishes can be taken from teachers. I'm sure there are real chefs among us.

An excellent material would be an article from the heading “Understudy of school professions”. Believe me, this task is fraught with a lot of educational moments: starting from career guidance, ending with the fact that schoolchildren begin to appreciate and respect the work of service personnel more.

And how can one not remember, speaking of food, the tempting smell from the girls' technology room? Photo report from labor lessons with step by step instructions will be accepted by the readers of the newspaper with a bang. And you can interview a technology teacher and find out: who, as a culinary specialist, does she like better - Urgant or Vysotskaya?

Much is currently being said about project activities students. Projects are being created. Actively. But often outside the classroom are not covered. Everything in the paper! “Kitchen phraseological units”, family project “Cooking a dish for mom by March 8”. All come here!

Use unusual shape supply of material. For example, a test drive. Find out by experience which portfolio is the most convenient for the student. Compiling a top. Top 5 most preferred professions among current 11th graders. Flash polls: what do schoolchildren think they can do during the holidays?

The experiment is very popular. For example, on the eve of October 5, one might ask the question: what does a teacher's child look like in numbers? Our experiment showed that for 1 shift a teacher walks an average of up to 2 km along the school corridors. And a set of 5 packs of notebooks is equal in weight to a 5 liter bottle of water.

As you can see, there are many informational occasions. Any thing that has fallen under the sight of a journalist can be fraught with fascinating material. Even a slipper accidentally left by a first grader near the locker room. For example, we found out that Cinderella Masha the confused may not worry about the safety of lost things. After all, the lost and found office is open from morning to evening.

Doors can become an object of attention. They regulate our whole life: sometimes they hide something, sometimes they open up entire worlds. We pass by them every day without even noticing how different they are. For example, the door to the school shooting gallery is the narrowest, the door to the dentist's office is the most intimidating, and the door to the dining room is the most attractive. What are the doors in your school?

One more piece of advice. Make out all statistical data, ratings in the form of infographics. Believe me, even adults find it difficult to perceive text stuffed with numbers and percentages. Even more so for children. Infographics are just about complex.

Every school newspaper has a heading called "People Who Surprised Us." The usual interviews with Olympiads and athletes are boring. They often do not reveal the personality from different angles. Try, for example, taking a picture of the contents of your character's briefcase. The results will be interesting! After all inner world every detail can reflect a person!

Actively involve yesterday's graduates in the creation of the newspaper. Their connection with the school is still strong. But also new impressions from student life lot. Let them share them with 11th graders. And they will tell you how studying at a university differs from school everyday life? Is it true that at first you work for the record book, and then it works for you? How to get vending machines? And most importantly, how to pass the exam and choose a university?

Families of schoolchildren are also actively involved in cooperation. Such a connection between generations allows us to find many points of contact. For example, sports grandmothers of second-graders can tell about the norms for passing the TRP and badges of various degrees from the pages of a school publication.

And one more tip: expand the boundaries of your contacts. Participate in competitions, rallies, olympiads in journalism. An excellent event in the conditions of our city is the regional media forum "Breakthrough". You can show yourself and look at others. And also to communicate with the sharks of the pen. They are happy to share advice with young correspondents.

Speaking about the creation of a high-quality school publication, it is mono, of course, to touch upon the acute issues of logistical support. Yes, I need a color printer, I need a SLR camera, modern computers. Unfortunately, this is not available to every school. However, the most important resource for creating an interesting newspaper is talented, enthusiastic students.
