Patents and inventions

              

Who wants to be an inventor? What do you do when you come up with an invention? Eric (Emma) talked to us about patents and inventions. It got everyone thinking and all the children started coming up with ideas for inventions. Who knows? Future inventors?

Presenting stories

            

Beginning, middle and end. The 3 parts a story should have. Everyone tried writing their stories and then read them out to the class. Great feedback from the Swedish teachers!

Chess with buddy class

                 

4b were delighted to share their chess talents with us after coming 2nd for "Shäck fyran" at the Globen. And they did notice that we do have some talented players in the class! It was fun to play chess together.

Seasons of the Year

    

What are we working with? Yes, you have guessed, seasons! Which seasons do we represent? This was our general introduction of the new theme we were presenting for all 3 first grade classes.

    

We then went back to the class and did some brainstorming of what the children knew around seasons. This is what we came up with!

Art work with patterns

        

        

Patterns, patterns, patterns!

Working with patterns this week has been about making different patterns with concrete material in small groups. What creative patterns the different groups came up with!

         

         

         

Working for Telia.

              

Telia? Who does not recognize the emblem? Well, all the children did! What does it mean to work for Telia and to be at the head of Human resources? What happens to you when you are fired? What do like about your job? These are just a few examples of questions asked. "Very often, something unexpected happens....there is never never a boring day" was a perfect end to a very informative presentation!
