5D was one out of eight classes participating, in Stockholms län, in the first "qualification round" of the classic game show Vi i femman.

Today 15/4, Ellen and Elias (5D's class representatives) competed in the quarter final of "Vi i femman". They competed against class 5:1 at Rudanskolan Huddinge. Due to covid-19, we weren't able to visit and complete the competition at the actual Radiohuset in Stockholm. Instead - we sat in the School library and did it online. The class mascot "Tomten Ahmed'' (that 5D won at a choice day-competition in November) sat with them as their lucky charm. 

Mind sport

With excitement, enthusiasm and light obsession, the students are trying out the new chess boards!! They mostly play during their breaks but also come for quick speed chess sessions in between their lessons.

There are many benefits to playing chess. For example developing and improving cognitive brain functions, problem-solving, creative thinking, strategic planning, pattern recognition, and memorization skills

The school and the students want to thank the Parents Teacher Association (PTA) for this lovely donation. In the coming weeks more games will arrive. Games like UNO and  Mastermind.

In year 8 English we are reading the novel Lord of the Flies, about a group of British school boys stranded on a desert island. 8c is reenacting a scene from the novel, showing the power struggle between the main characters. 

Year 5 students used the Scientific Method to determine how the temperature of water would affect the rate in which a Skittles rainbow forms.  An experiment to brighten up a winter day!
