FundamentalValues

Working with democracy and fundamental values

The Swedish Schools Inspectorate stress the importance to work with democracy and fundamental values which is also found in Lgr 11 as you all know by now. I will work with the equal right for all children and pupils and creating a secure environment. The primary aim of this quality assessment is to contribute to development and awareness. This is very important that we all work with democracy and fundamental values in English.

Also we're working with vocabulary; being a victim and being a bully.

Riktigt bra lexikon att jobba med online: http://sv.bab.la/lexikon/engelsk-svensk/

Below you will find 5 different posters. We are going to work with them for until week 40. Then we'll repeat everything!

-----------------------

You've got another assigned on which you work with during our lessons; how to explain 4-5 words. The aim is to show me you understand the word and know how to use it. You'll find the assignment in Google Classroom.

Ex. Belittle: If you belittle someone it usually makes the person feeling small. It’s not a nice thing to do. In fact, I would probably feel worthless if someone did that to me.

Ex. Intimidate: If you intimidate somebody it means that you scare somebody. You can scare a person in many different ways. You may stare at somebody, you may shout at somebody and make threats. I wouldn't feel safe if anyone would do that to me.

If you have any questions; please contact me and just ask!
