The horses you see on this page are a product of the discussions we've had about identity. The students were asked to design, on paper how they would decorate two horses in a way so that they would demonstrate who they are and what they are iinterested in. The form of the horses is typical for as "Dalahäst" (pictured) which symbolizes Sweden. We live in Sweden and we let this form represent living in Sweden. The decoration on the horses would describe who we are within this form.

This week, one teacher and three of our student from the ninth grade are visiting our friend-school in Paraköy, Turkey. This school is one of a few schools that are involved in the Comenius project named in this blog. The students took with them som napkin-holder horses (see the other pictures in this blog) that we made in our art project with them to show what we've been doing. We hope that they like them as much as we do. The rest of the class has autumn recess this week and will continue with their horses next week. The next stage after the horses are completed is to write a short article about what diffrent symbols and picture are found on each horse and what they imply or describe. We hope to post some examples within a few weeks.
