We have four different seasons here in Sweden. I think it's amaizing and some of them are more enjoyable then the other. Winter is cold and the snow lays on the ground, and you can go skiing which is one of my favourite activities. Then spring comes and make the grass, trees and flowers grow and it starts getting warm in the air. After the spring the summer is here with sun and bathing. When the autumn comes the leaws turns into many colours and at last they fall down. When that beutiful autumn is over the brown, grey and rainy autumn takes part, it isn't so pleasant anymore. So my favourite season is the summer, it's just so lovely.
First of all you have vacation, you can do whatever you like whenever you want to. You can stay out late in the evenings and just hang out with your friends in the summerheat until the night becomes morning and it isn't even cold outside, I just love it. There are barbeques and picnics everywhere.
My second reason is that you can sunbathing and bath, which I'm a huge fan of. Near my parents place we have a brew at the lake "Vättern" were we spend almost every sunny day. It's so lovely to sunbathe, you feel the sun warn your body into the bones and don't have to think about all that has be done, because there is nothing that you have to do right now anyway.
Finally and the most interesting thing is that the mood changes so much when it gets hotter outside and the sun just have to show her self and people starts to feel better. The summer makes the whole body to feel better, the hair, skin, mood and strenght gets a new start and the energy is maximum. You can see that people have got another passion in their faces, and seems to feel better. At least it is so for me. That's why summer is my favourite season.

Assignment 5:
We live in a world full of crime and violence and it is not possible to watch every single thing that happens. To put up cameras in areas that are more exposed can be a way to protect and to reduce both murder and rapes. Today we have security cameras in shops, restaurants, banks and other places where there is possible that a crime is made. But when have it gone to long? Persons can listen when you talk in your phone and when you go out from your entrence someone might film you. What happend to the privacy?
It is really good that we put up camreas to keep from viloence and rapes, to not be falcely acused of stealing or to find out who raped someone in the streets. To have cameras as evidence material in situations like that can save peoples lifes and is a very good complement I think.
On the other hand I think that the technology has gone to far when it comes to some things. The hole big brother thing is going out of line in the fact that you cant do anything without people knowing what it is. Today you can find out whatever you want about someone, how many parking tickets they have or what they do just at the moment without speaking to them. It's frightening to know that everything you do can be watched.
If we use our democracy we have in our country I think we can come up to something by voting were we want to have cameras. If we support the choices where to put the cameras no one can be sour about where they sit. And at the same time we still have the deomcracy among the people.
Finally, we are being watcht for our own protection, for our safety. Big brother is watching. Some of us feel like our integrety is being put on the line and sometimes not given the respect we're used to, but you always want to feel safe... so I think that it is a good conclution to take this to a voting on this and everyone is allowed to say their opinion and then the government decide that the options that have the highest voting points is the ones we shall refer to. We shall listen to what the people want and try to please all the members and make them feel safe!

Assignment 4:
In school there is always so much talk about grades, especially in the higher grades. How good they manage the work in school and it is important that they get the grades at the end so they can move on. Now the Centre-Right Alliance wanted to take the grades lower in the classes and im not sure that it is such a good thing to to... I think it´s enough with grades in the fifth grade, the younger kids have their
For the first I think that children shall be children so long they have chance to be, they need to grow up so fast in the social life when they are so young and when you look at the children today they seem to be more grown up than we were when we were at the same age. But in shool I think they shall enjoy and learn without feeling the press to be best and to do as much as they can to . They have to feel that they can be kids.
Every child develope at different levels, they are individual, some of them may be very good at mathematics in the third grade and some maybe don't understand anything, but the next year it falling to place for them to. It's so difficult when they are in my opinion "to young", we will have some kids who need extra time to understand things and we have they who is further than the other in our class. Kids in class compete with eachother in almost everything and I don't think that is a good way to learn things in school. Those kids that isn't as good as the best in class might feel bad about not reaching the grade and manage to do what the other kids can, maybe just give up and think that they can't do anything.
The school have their aims that they should work with and the kids shall reach them, and I think it enough untill they gets a little bit older and wiser. To consentrate on their own business and learning is the best for them in the lower grades. The system was good the way it was in many ways. This is a change which is to big. Our work is to make the pupils feel that they grow and learn things, and this change will make it harder I think!
That's some reasons why grades in the lower primary school isn't a good thing, my advice to the government is therefore to think again and try to see all the negative effects that might be
current at this point. A child needs to be a child and they need to take the time they need to learn things and understand the meaning of it.

Assignment 3: The climate change.
The climate change is a big question today. We all know that the climate have change and we also know what we can do to make it a little bit better, but no one take it seriously enough to help saving the world.
First of all I want to say that people nowadays are to lazy and they are so comfortable with the lifestyle we having. It's so much easier to take the car when you are going somewhere than just take your bike or take a walk. Almost every family has a car or even two. The traffis have grown so fast and become a huge reson for this climate change. People complain about that the price for gas is so high but still they take the car instead of the bike. No one have the time to let something take some minutes more.
The second thing is that we want to have so many new technical things. It cost more to repair than to buy a new thing. So factories have to produce so much and when they do that they get a lot of spill and dangerous gases that gets out in nature and air. But that isn't something that stops us to consume more, we are to greedy and wants to have more and more. And in this point media plays a big part, they make us belive that we need all these things and that our lives will be so much better when it's exactly the opposite way. We live in acomsuming society and it only getting worse in that point...
My third thought about this is that it's something that is so long away in time so we can't se what is happening before our eyes today. We think that someone will do the work for us so we don't need to care so much about it, and if don't will get any problems and become a total catastrophe when we live I think many don't think so much about it.
As a conclusion of this problem I would say that it's up to every single person to take their responsibility and think twice about how we actually live. Do we really need all these stuff that we buy all the time? No one will do it for you so it's just to start and help in the way you can to make the world to a better place. While saving the world we could save some money and that is something for me to think about and probably will make me think twice...

Assignment 2: Favourite Tv series
Im not such a huge fan of watching television now longer. I've started to look less on television than I used to do when I was younger. I used to watch all the "soap operas" when I came home from school, it was Ricky Lake, Sunset Beach and it countinued with others all evening.
Today I just follow two series, it is Sex and the City with is the best serie that ever been made in my opinion. It has it all like humor, romans, sex, tradgedy, up's and down's for all of the four woman that lives their lives on Manhattan in New York. I't a serie were we can follow the woman in what ever they do and all ebarrasment they happens to do. You laugh and you feel with them and it's just so lovely to watch.
The other serie I like to watch is Grey's Anatomy with is a hospital serie, it is funny and it always happens a lot of crazy things in the programes. It's a nice thing to spend the wednesday's with.
A third thing I follow slavishly is Bygglov, whitch is a renovation programe. It is also a facilely programe and it's fun to se how the houses changes and become so fine after they are done with everything. And I think the carpenter "Bygg Matte" is a really good-looker. The three main persons of the programe is also very funny to listen to, they joke and they make fun of eachother and are always so energetic and work so hard to fix other peoples houses. That's a nice thing and a good concept I think!
I think there is a lot of series that is good, but there is also an anbundance with series that isn't so good and in my opinion very bad and have no meaning at all. More good things on the television again!

First assignment. 090414
I think that in the future things will be more important to children, everything they se through the media, like television, programes, and in the communities will effect them in some way. As an adult it will be very important to make our children to become a independent person with both self-confidence and the thoughts that he or she can reach their dreams.
As we have been seing nowadays the television programes only getting worse and I think it will continue to follow that trend, everything will be reality series were we can follow tradgical lifes of persons, or series like Top Model which will print thoughts into our kids heads and make them think that they aren't good enough as they are. If it's hard to be a kid today it will be even more difficult in a few years, if we don't try to raise our children to be children. When I was on my VFU my class were playing a tv-serie on the breaks and it wasn't a good serie, it was murder, lies and other things that just distroyed the relationships between every person in the programe. Things like that make the children think that it's how it works in the real life if we as adult/ teachers aloud them to continue. It's not good for them, especially not the younger children, to watch it. They can do it when they get older and wiser.
Children needs to feel free, to play and get the chans to really be a child. To get a healthy child with fire for life I think they need to play, to have rules and to feel love from the closest family or relative. And after that they need to get good food have steady habbits and a good vision of life.
To live in a home without rules and an adult who can take responsibility for what happens is confusing to the children and they don't get a stable ground to build their life on it will be difficult to get harmony in their life and learn in the best way and so on!
