Physical education:
Mette, Siv hege and I are joining some Danich student in Physical education.
This class reminds me of my own gymclasses in secondary school:)
We had ball games, gymnastics an swimming. For us this classes are fun to joine. But because this class is for theatcher education is not so usefull for us in kindergarden.

Spesial needs:
In these lessons we have talked about how the spesial needs education is in the different countries.
Every country made a presentations from their country.
This is the one we made:

A kindergarten for everyone:
Staff are responsible for ensuring that all children, regardless of their level of functioning, age, gender and family background, feel that they and everyone else in the group are important to the community.

Kindergartens shall provide an environment in which different individuals and different cultural expressions meet with respect for their differences.

Looking at differences and similarities can help to foster understandings and insights.

Encountering something that is different from yourself allows you to develop a positive curiosity about the similarities and differences between people and cultures.

The content of kindergartens must be communicated in a way that allows different children to participate in different ways, in line with their own interests, skills and development levels.

Instead of relocate children with special needs, we adjust the invirement so they can be a natural part of the group.

The physical environment:
Kindergartens’ physical environments shall be designed in such a way that all children have many opportunities to participate actively in play and other activities. The arrangement of the physical environment must take into account that children of different ages, and with different levels of ability, will use the same spaces.

When planning the design of a kindergarten, the societal aim of reducing barriers to people with disabilities must be taken into consideration. The planning, location and construction of new kindergartens should be based on principles of universal access.

This means that products, buildings and outdoor areas shall be designed in such a way that everyone can enjoy them equally without special requirements or tools, in so far as this is possible.

Staff:
Depending on the childs situation we have diferent posibilities:

Next to the regular staff there is one extra adult who is always next to this child to help him in everyday life.

If there is a child with special needs in the group there can be an extra adult who is there because of the child but it`s not needed to help him with everything, just support him when it`s needed.

One extra adult next to the ragular staff, to help the whole group.

There are children with learning disable, they don`t have an extra adult with them, but is taken out of the grup about two times a week.

Pedagogic- psycoligical- team (ppt):
This is a service the kinderkarten can kontakt if they think they have a child whith spacial needs.

Then the service can come to the kindetrgarten and observe the child. Then the ppt can deside which help the child need.

For example: special pedagogical team that is send in to help.

Special pedagogial team:
Each comunity has a team that containes of f.eks speacial-pedagogs, logopeds.

They travel whithin the comunity to difrent kindergartens to help the children whith special needs

The children which has extra help out of the group get helped by this team.
