Despite the recognized importance of text adaptation for effective language learning, systematic research and established methods in Kazakh linguistics are notably lacking. While some scholars advocatefor developing simplified texts to support learners, there is a deficiency of comprehensive guidelines andtools for this purpose, leading to inconsistent practices and outcomes. This research aims to highlight thesignificance of using adapted texts in foreign language teaching through a systematic literature review.Following this, the study identifies key trends and methods in text adaptation, focusing specifically onthe text simplification model. Due to the scarcity of in-depth studies on Kazakh text adaptation, the research employs synthesis and analysis methods to apply learned adaptation techniques to Kazakh texts.The practical part of the study involves adapting publicistic and scientific authentic text in Kazakh usingthe text simplification model. This process is detailed to illustrate how adaptation techniques can be effectively implemented despite the challenges posed by the lack of standardized practices. The findingsunderscore the need for a structured framework for text adaptation to enhance language education andprovide insights for future research and development in the field of Kazakh language teaching.Key words: text, authenticity, adaptation, adapted texts, foreign language.
