Ever wondered what happened to students
who graduated from AIS? Read all about
this month’s “Where Am I Now?” student
on page 15.
Our last profile interview question is, “If you had the chance
to have the whole world hear one sentence from you, what
would you say?” Quite a powerful question that makes us
think about what impact we want to have on the world.
What sentence would you say if the whole world was listening to you?
To be internationally minded we need to
reach out to students going to other international schools and beyond. Read about our
“Reach-Out” students on pages 17 & 18
Our 4th grade reporters, Rayyan and Farai, asked our grade
10 students a similar question, “How are you going to leave
your mark in this world?” for our Community Talk page, as
our recent graduates prepare to transition to another life
phase.

Qatar International School http://www.qis.org/
We were given an opportunity to interview a former teacher, Jonathan Elliott, who taught in our school
from the year 2007 to 2010, when the school was still in Arendal centre. Mr. Elliott used to teach Humanities at our school. Now he lives in Qatar with his family, two daughters, ages six and eight years old. He
was born in Cheltenham, a small city in the west of England, United Kingdom, . He has travelled with
work, teaching and living in such countries as Spain, France, Norway, Thailand and now Qatar.
Mr. Elliott says, “Travelling is addictive and exciting. I like exploring new cultures and different environments.” However, he also believes that travelling negatively affects his children, as it is difficult for them
to get used to a different environment. Mr. Elliott currently teaches Humanities at Qatar International
School (QIS), an IB World School. He finds it interesting to teach in a school with a very different culture
and religion, compared to the other schools he has worked in. He teaches grades 10, 11 and 12 and he
is the only Humanities teacher. He told us that he chose to teach Humanities because he wanted to
make a difference in the environment by educating the younger generations about the world around us
and what needs to be done to make a positive change.
As a result of working in an international school, Mr. Elliott has learned that students all over the world
deal with the same problems of stress and socialization no matter the culture or religion. His advice for
all the students would be to work hard and study but to keep a balance between school and life. “Don’t
be only focused on school as there is more to life than just that. Enjoy the journey. After school there will
high school, then university, then work, a never ending story. Take time throughout the way to do other
things.”
Qatar International School
Mr Elliott has fond memories of working at AIS. He misses our small community and how everyone here
is very friendly. He really enjoyed working with Ms. Bente and thinks that she really believes for what the
IB stands for and that is why she does such a good job as the Principal.
When he was around the age of 10, Mr. Elliott loved the subject of Music as it was a different and unusual from all the other subjects, which required looking at a textbook. When it comes to music taste, , he
says that his taste is very old school, as he listens to music such as “The Rolling Stones” and “Queen”.
Later on, at the age of 16, he started liking English as he believed that literature used real emotions and
people in a creative way. He enjoyed Geography, of course, which is what he currently teaches at QIS.
When looking back at when he worked at AIS he remembers Norway and how different the countryside
is. He misses the green nature and the balance that Norway has between life and work. Mr. Elliot will be
staying at his cabin in Norway this summer to meet his friends and connect with the countryside again.
In his spare time Mr. Elliott plays the guitar and does other activities with the family such as swimming
and playing sports.
Where in the world is the U.K
His breakfast to get ready for work is simple yoghurt and a coffee, nothing too heavy as he believes that
eating high carb foods would make him tired for the day.
Mr. Elliott has some interests outside of work such as playing squash, football, playing the guitar and of
course being with his family. He says that if he could say one sentence to the whole world it would be,
“Be kind to each other and be kind and caring for the environment.”

I currently work for Osaka International School but starting in August 2015 I will be working at Canadian International School in Singapore.
What do you like best about the school you work for?
It’s a totally unique international school because it shares a campus with a Japanese school. The
campus was designed around the idea of trying to move away from a bubble expat community by
providing greater daily integration with the host country Japanese community. It helps build cultural
understanding and connections between expats and Japan.
What is your favourite subject at school.

Porridge or Weetabix cereal during the week, but on the weekend I have boiled eggs and wheat bread
toast with camembert cheese.
Do you have a cause that you would like to mention?
The endangered plight of nearly all 22 species of albatross. This majestic family of birds has been forever entwined in maritime superstition. The wingspan of a wandering albatross can span 3.5 meters! They
drink salt water, can live up to 50 or 60 years old, they build loving partnerships for life and can fly for
days without rest, They’re amazing! However, commercial fishing, introduced predators, climate change,
sea pollution and commercial fishing practices have placed nearly all albatross species in an endangered position. More needs to be done to protect this incredible creature.

Did you know?
Almost four-fifths of Japan is covered with mountains.
More than a thousand earthquakes hit Japan every year. Japan also has about 200 volcanoes, 60 of which are
active
The Japanese are famous for their willingness to work very hard. Children are taught to show respect for others,
especially parents and bosses. They learn to do what's best for their family or company and worry less about
their own needs.
Japanese food is very different from food in Western countries. There is lots of rice, fish, and vegetables, but
little meat. With little fat or dairy, this diet is very healthy, which helps Japanese people live, on average, longer
than any other people in the world.
People first came to Japan about 30,000 years ago. At the time, the main islands were connected to Siberia and
Korea by bridges of dry land, so people crossed on foot. The first society, called the Jomon culture, arose about
12,000 years ago. Around the same time, the Ainu people arrived by boat from Siberia.
Japan is the only country in the world with a reigning emperor. Emperors have no real power, but they are still
revered as a symbol of the country's traditions and unity.

A Huge Tomato Fight!
La Tomatina is a food fight festival held on the last Wednesday of August
each year in the town of Bunol near to Valencia in Spain. Thousands of people make
their way from all corners of the world to fight
in this 'World's Biggest Food Fight'.
Before 2013 between 40,000 to 50,000 people were involved in the huge tomato fight.
Since 2013 official ticketing has been in place limiting the number of participants to just
20,000 .
There is limited accommodation for people who come to La Tomatina,
so many people take the easier option of staying in nearby Valencia just
38km to Bunol by bus or train. In preparation for the dirty mess, shopkeepers use huge
plastic covers on their storefronts in order to protect them from the mess from the
thrown tomatoes.
You must have a ticket to be able to get in, so if you decide to go, please remember to
buy a ticket!

Our Celebration Highlight For July
Writer: Julia, grade 2
Every 4th of July, Americans celebrate their independence as their own country. The U.S got its independence from Great
Britain in 1776 after winning the revolutionary war. Colonists fought for their freedom because they wanted to make their own decisions and have ownership over their things. On July 4 th 1776 the declaration of independence was approved after lots of discussion and revisions (revisions mean changes). Thomas Jefferson wrote the declaration and worked with a small group including John Adams and Benjamin franklin.
On the 4th of July, Americans celebrate their freedom. The U.S.A is a democracy, which means that people can take part in governing, just like in Norway. Americans celebrate July 4th with parades and picnics that sometimes include watermelon eating contests. I would like to take part in this contest! Some towns organize fun runs or baseball games and barbeques are common.
Typical foods at a barbeque can include: hotdogs, hamburgers, corn on the cob and apple pie.
Most American kids wear shorts and a t-shirt on the 4th of July. Their clothing is red, white and blue like the flag and they usually
wear a pattern with stars and stripes.
This year my family will celebrate the 4th of July in my mom´s hometown in VT (Vermont). We will take part in a morning fun run
and then watch the parade. While we watch the parade, I will get to run and collect candy that the parade marchers throw.
When we are not in the U.S.A for the 4th of July, we still celebrate the holiday with a barbeque with good friends.
Declaration: A formal statement.
Independence: Living by your own rules.
Revolutionary war: a war based on people wanting change.

FUN FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD!
Learn about games to play at school taken from different countries around the world!
Researcher & Designer: Ali, grade 5
One thing that stays constant despite rule changes, is that during
each possession on one side of the net, a team can only have three
contacts with the ball. The ideal sequence of contacts is usually a pass, a
set and a hit—even the terminology has changed over the years. These
skills were traditionally called bump, set and spike.
No player can ever make contact with the ball twice in a row, and the
ball cannot be caught or carried over the net. A block is not considered as
part of a hit.. Each play starts off with a serve. The server steps behind the
line at the very back of the court, called the end line, and has freedom to
serve from wherever he or she pleases as long as the foot does not touch
or cross the line. If the server’s foot crosses the end line, it is considered a
foot fault, and results in a side-out—a change in possession of the ball.

What’s the difference between indoor and beach volleyball?

A major difference is the number of players on the court. Beach volleyball has two players on a team. Indoor volleyball has six.

Indoor volleyball has a bigger court

Beach volleyball players have to be good at passing, setting and hitting
because they have to do all three.

Thought to be the oldest multi-page book in the world,
dating to about 660 BC, the Etruscan Gold Book was discovered 70 years ago whilst digging a canal off the
Strouma river in Bulgaria. The book is made from 6
sheets of 24 carat gold, bound together with rings, and is
estimated to be 2,673 years old.

Creative Corner
Remember our “Where Am I Now?” teacher from last month’s issue? She has another talent besides being an inspirational teacher!
Mataji grew up watching her parents and her only brother,
paint and sketch. In the Philippines, her father would let her
meet artists in their home studios when she was about seven
years old; and her mother would mentor her on sketching
female faces. When she was in middle school, she attended an
art summer workshop and took a six-month course in architectural drafting, that had components of fine arts, calligraphy etc.
At that time, she would get lost for hours in the sweeping
energy of creating something (oil painting) in her bedroom. She
was thirteen, when all she wanted to do was to paint. It was
not until she was thirty six, that she picked up the brush again
when she saw acrylic paints and canvases for sale in a hobby
shop near her home in Sweden. She posted some her first acrylic paintings on Facebook, with excitement and nervousness. A
relative in Guam saw her portrait of her daughter and offered
to buy it. From then on, she started putting up her art for sale
and hasn't stopped painting since then.
Mataji currently lives with her loving Indian husband in South India with their beautiful eleven year old daughter, Aaliaa, who loves abstract paintings and also sells her artworks online. Mataji has a degree in Psychology and Masters in Teaching; and has worked as a Program Coordinator/Teacher in international schools in Norway, Sweden, Botswana and India. Her love for travel inspires her art and viceversa. Her travels in western Europe, North America, Southern and Northern Africa, South and Southeast Asia have inspired her to build
a travel series, in addition to her 'Family Love' series. Her 'Family Love’ series hopes to inspire families to re-unite in love and be truly
present with each other.
Some of her works are currently in private collections in the USA, Canada, Singapore, Australia, Norway, India and the Philippines.

Film Review
By Siddhant, grade 10
Like Stars on Earth (Taare Zameen Par) (2007)
One of the most touching and thoughtful films I have ever seen
PG. I think it is completely fine for kids (A few emotionally intense scenes)
Rating: 8.5/10 (IMDb), 86% (Rotten Tomatoes)
Directors: Aamir Khan, Amole Gupte
Stars: Darsheel Safary, Aamir Khan, Tanay Chheda
Genre: Drama, Family
An eight year old boy is thought to be lazy and a troublemaker, until the new art teacher has the patience and compassion to discover the real problem behind his struggles in school.
Like Stars on Earth is an amazing film about a Ishaan (Darsheel Safary) who is unaware that he is suffering from dyslexia (a learning disorder). His family and teachers mistake his learning disorder as an excuse for not studying and his lack of interest in studies. Though unable to concentrate in studies, he has amazing art skills for his age, and his imagination is beyond what others can
think. Fortunately, an art teacher (Aamir Khan) discovers his talents and helps him to re-discover his talents.
The movie is heartfelt, and has amazing performance from its actors, Darsheel Safary and Aamir Khan. I have watched this movie multiple
times, but it never ceases to amaze, and move me. In the end, the movie is all about friendship, discovering your talents and abilities and helping each other. The movie also strengthens the concept that “every child is special”, and will also make you believe this as well. Overall, it is one
of the most touching and thoughtful films I have ever seen.
The movie is not available on Netflix and Viaplay, but can be found with English subtitles on YouTube.

THE POWER TO MAKE A CHANGE (TEACHER PROFILE CAUSE)
The albatross
Research and Design: Michelle, grade 3
Basic Facts
Type of animal: Bird
What does it eat? Other animals (carnivore)
Average life span in the wild: Up to 50 years
Wingspan size: 2 to 3.4 m
Weight: Up to 10 kg
wingspan
Albatrosses have the longest wingspan of any bird—up to 3.4 meters! The wandering albatross is the biggest
of around two dozen different species. Albatrosses use their great wingspans to ride the ocean winds and
sometimes to glide for hours without rest or even moving their wings. They also float on the sea's surface,
though the position makes them easy prey for animals that live in the sea.
DIET
Albatrosses feed mainly on squid or groups of fish, but are familiar to mariners because they sometimes
follow ships in hopes of eating food handed to them or rubbish. Albatrosses drink salt water.
Life span
These birds can live for a very long time! As long as 50 years of age. They are rarely seen on land and
gather only to breed, at which time they form large groups (colonies) on remote islands.
Risk of extinction
Some albatross species were heavily hunted for feathers that were used as down and in the manufacture of
women's hats.
There are 21 albatross species recognized by IUCN (international union for conservation of nature). These
species are on their red list as 19 are threatened, and the other two are "near threatened". The IUCN considers three species critically endangered: the Amsterdam albatross,Tristan albatross and the waved albatross. One of the main threats is commercial fishing, as the albatrosses and other seabirds—which will
readily feed on the sea bait become hooked on the lines and drown. An estimated 100,000 albatross per year
are killed this way.

COMMUNITY TALK
Reporters: Farai and Rayyan, grade 4
The transition from high school to further studies is a significant mile stone Our Reporters interviewed some students to find
out their reflections on the following question.
How are you going to leave you mark in this world?
Adelaine
Hanna
I am going to try to make a mark on people through
my positive attitude, often that can encourage a person. I really want to be the kind of person that can
be there for someone.
I am going to fight for what I believe in, for example:
continue with nature and youth, be active there and
try to help the environment In that way, in addition to
being a good person.
Eva
I want to help other people as
much as possible. I also want to
make it more environmentally
friendly.
Merle
By finding true happiness and doing what I am destined to do, finding what I like and then pursuing
that with passion.
Emilija
Rok
I’m going to do something. I’m going to try to give the
world all of my knowledge, teach others what I know, see
where it goes from there and try to change the world
somehow.
I’ve always had an interest in Science, so I
think maybe something scientific, discover a
medicine or some technology.
