Vi har arbetat med FN under SV och SO lektionerna. Vi har skrivit fakta om FN och skrivit manus + talkort och presenterat i en film som årskurs 3 klippt ihop. Vi har pratat om barnens rättigheter och sett filmklipp om hur olika en skoldag kan se ut i olika delar av världen. Vi har valt ut två rättigheter och skrivit dem på våra fredsduvor som pryder vår klassrumsdörr samt hänger i taket i vårt klassrum. Vi är väldigt stolta över vårt arbete och vi har lärt oss mycket. 
Today, the students in grades 6, 7, 8, and 9 participated in UN Day. They were divided into countries and participated in debates representing their countries’ interests.
There was also a tasty UN Day fika. The students made goodies to share with their classmates.
Our first unit “Champions for change” was focusing on a very significant topic, democracy, and the importance of participation. In grade 4 we started with an inquiry into the different types of government around the world and then we focused on democracy. We learned about the roots of this political system and the different types of democracy that are currently in various countries, including Sweden. Taking this unit as inspiration, learners prepared for the student council representatives elections. In Art, we learned about the principles of graphic design and color theory and made our own campaign poster. In English, we looked at persuasive text and arguments and prepared a speech about why people should vote for us. Our exit point was of course the class elections!
In conjunction with the IMYC big idea “Collaboration” the 6th graders have been working with Muscles!
Not only have they learnt how the human skeletal muscles work, but have also had the opportunity to think about creating a new muscle for the human body to improve on its functionality! For example adding gills, so we breathe underwater, creating an extra muscle around the heart to lower the chances to heart disease!
