Systematisk progresjon
Quest bygger stein på stein og har en systematisk progresjon.
Temaene og metodene bygger på hverandre fra år til år.
Elevene bruker ordforrådet aktivt gjennom ulike aktiviteter.
Differensiering
Quest legger vekt på felles opplevelser knyttet til ulike tekster. Det er noe å gjøre for alle elever i arbeidet med alle tekstene.
Tekstene er merket med ulik vanskegrad.
vanskegrad 1
vanskegrad 2
Tekster som består av flere deler, er av og til merket som både rød og gul tekst. Hensikten er å differensiere mengde tekst.
Quest legger vekt på mye muntlig aktivitet – både lytting og snakking. Talking partners-symbolet viser at oppgaven kan løses sammen med læringspartnere.
Write-sidene har modelltekster og skriverammer som gir god støtte i skrivearbeidet med ulike typer tekster.
På Language Work-sidene er det lærestoff knyttet til grammatikk og språklæring.
Vurdering
Quest har ulike oppgaver for refleksjon over egen læring: Learning words, Summing up, kopiark for egenvurdering (Bus stop) og kapittelprøver.

Learning Log
A learning log is a kind of diary. You write regularly, at least once a week. It helps you think about the topic, what you have learned and how you might work better in the future.
You can write about these points:
• What was the discussion or lesson about?
• What was one important thing I learned today?
• What helped me to learn in today’s lesson?
• What didn’t I understand in the lesson?
• What did I enjoy/do well in class today?
• How did I work today?
• What can I do better?
Keep your learning log in an exercise book or a (digital) folder.

How to Bullet Journal
Bullet journals are used to plan your day or your week, to make to-do lists and to reflect on things you read or hear, or your feelings and reactions.
A bullet journal can be as simple or complicated as you want it to be. Create a bullet journal that works for you and your life. The most important thing is to get started. It is meant to be easy and quick to do. If you don’t have much time, you don’t need to decorate your journal. Just write! On the other hand, if you do like drawing and decorating, you can add all the decorative elements you like.
You can do bullet journal writing in many ways. You can write down:
• what has happened that day or week.
• your plans for the future.
• your day – as a diary entry.
• what you need to do, and tick off each thing when it’s done, as a checklist.
• fun things to do.
• your goals (eat vegetables, go for a walk, practise playing an instrument, saving money).
You can:
• use it as a calendar and plan your month or day.
• track your habits.
• make a happy list.
• note something important you learned today.
• do whatever you want ☺.
So, no need to wait! Start your BuJo writing today!

Talk about it!

b Do you know of other ways to organise your ideas?

Before reading
What do you like doing in your spare time?
What Are You Curious About?
You can learn a lot about yourself by paying attention to what you are curious about. We have asked four children what they are curious about.
My favourite subject in school is arts and crafts. I do a lot of painting and drawing in my spare time, too. I watch tutorials on my tablet and spend hours learning different techniques. Once a week I attend a course where I learn how to become better at drawing. So you can say that art is my biggest hobby. Maybe I can become an artist? Or maybe I will be an architect or an interior designer?
I like mathematics and coding. I really like playing video games! I often wonder how much coding is needed for just one game. We have had coding in school and I really liked it. One time we had to make small robots move and another time we had to make a game. We used a really good app. Imagine working with and making video games! Or programme machines to do something special. Maybe I will become a computer system engineer or a web developer? I also love playing the guitar, so perhaps I will become a musician?
I am interested in building different things. When I was younger, I had a huge box of LEGO. I followed LEGO instructions but I also made up my own constructions. I have always helped my grandfather with carpentry. Last summer, we built two new stairways outdoors and an outdoor shower at our cabin. When I grow up, I want to have a job that allows me to build things and use my hands.
My biggest dream is to become a vet because I like taking care of animals. I live on a farm and we have many different animals, but mostly sheep. It is important to my family that our animals have good lives. We also have two horses, a dog and three cats. In addition, I like different kinds of sports and would also like to work as a sports journalist or a trainer. Time will tell ...

b What do you want to become when you grow up?
c Do you think any of your interests will be an important part of your job in the future?

Talk about it!
Ask a grown-up what they wanted to become when they were your age. Did their wish come true? If not, why?
Before reading
Look at the painting. Describe to a partner what you see.
Boy on High Dive
After reading
a What do you think the boy is thinking? Work in pairs or in small groups and make thought bubbles. Share in class.
b How would you give the boy enough self-confidence to jump? What would you say? What arguments would you use?
c You think it is a bad idea for the boy to jump. How would you persuade him NOT to jump without feeling embarrassed?
Talk about it!
a Who is the bravest – the boy who decides to jump or the boy who says this is not for him and doesn’t jump? Look at the word cloud and discuss with a partner.
b How can we “read” a picture? Brainstorm ideas.
c What does “to be brave” mean? Explain, and give an example.

Name one thing you have succeeded in doing, though you struggled to make it.
Famous Failures
All people fail sometimes, even famous people. Famous people have often failed many times before they succeeded. The fear of failure often makes people, young or old, avoid trying new things or taking on a challenge. If you do not fear failure, you are one step closer to success! Read about these two famous people who failed on their way to success.

J.K. Rowling
J.K. Rowling is a British author and screenwriter best known for her Harry Potter series. She has sold millions of copies of her books. Rowling was born Joanne Rowling 31 July 1965 in Yate, England. She studied at the University of Exeter. Her first marriage ended in divorce. She had a daughter and because she struggled to support herself and her daughter on welfare, she started writing the first Harry Potter book. The idea for the book came to her while on a train from Manchester to London.
J.K. Rowling tried to publish her book but was rejected twelve times. She almost gave up, but then she finally met a publisher who wanted to publish her novel. It hit the shelves in 1997. The huge response to Rowling’s books really took off in July 2000. The rest is history. She has become the first billionaire author and is the UK’s bestselling living author.
Quote: “Anything is possible if you’ve got enough nerve.”
Thomas Edison
Thomas Edison is perhaps one of the greatest inventors in history. There are 1093 patents in his name. Many of his inventions are still in use in our daily lives.
Thomas Edison was born in Ohio, USA, 11 February 1847. Surprisingly, Thomas did not do well in school, and only lasted three months! His mother, who was a teacher, taught him at home. When he was 12 years old, he convinced his parents to let him sell newspapers to passengers on trains. He also started to write articles and sold his own small newspaper. At the age of 15, he became a telegraph operator and became interested in communications. He started a research lab and had many people working for him and helping him with his inventions.
Thomas Edison is most famous for the invention of the first practical electric light bulb that could be used in homes. Other inventions are the electric light system, the phonograph (a machine that records and replays sounds) and motion pictures (movies). Sometimes it took thousands of attempts to perfect an experiment, but he never gave up.
Edison died 18 October 1931 at the age of 84.

Say something with words
I like to write essays to express my opinions. I come up with arguments I think are convincing and which show how I feel or think about a topic. I have also tried to write poems but that is a bit more difficult. You can also express your opinions by making banners, posters or flyers.
poetry poesi express uttrykke opinions meninger convincing overbevisende banners bannere, faner moods humør
Say something with your art
When I feel I have to express something I like to paint pictures. I use different colours for different moods or feelings. I use acrylic or watercolour painting.

Say something with music
I am in a band, and I express myself through singing. My band is really concerned about the environment, and we have made two songs on that topic. I think music is a good way to get people to listen to how I feel.
Say something with your courage
Some girls in school bullied my friend. In the beginning I didn’t dare say anything because I was afraid they would turn on me. But then I saw the look on my friend’s face and I just said, “Stop!” A teacher heard me and came to our rescue. It felt good to do something right.
Say something with your presence
One time I felt really sad. I was sitting by myself in the schoolyard when one of my friends came by. She didn’t say anything. She just sat down next to me. We sat there for a while and it felt good.

LEARN NEW GAMES
LONGER BREAKS AT SCHOOL
TASK
Choose one or more statements and give reasons or arguments.
• We should have longer school days and no homework.
• We should have no homework.
• We should have longer breaks.
• We should use mobile phones in school.
• Children can make a big difference to the environment.
• Children can make a big difference in their community.
• Children should be able to play computer games whenever they want.
• Children should decide when to go to bed at night.
• Individual work is easier than group work .
• Everyone should do 60 minutes of physical activity every day.
• Parents should know their children’s passwords.
• A statement of your choice.
My opinion on why children should have longer breaks at school
I think children my age should have longer breaks at school and I will explain why.
Breaks at school give children time to be with their friends. We can talk, play games and even learn new games. It is fun to be with friends at school. We can also make new friends.
Children need a break. Very often, we just sit still during the periods. We need the activity we get. We will have time to eat a snack if we are hungry or go to the toilet if we need to. The breaks make us focus better in class. In my opinion, even five more minutes will help. It will give us the extra time we need.
In an article published by Recess Guardians, experts say that longer breaks at school are really important for our health, developing skills and a social life. The experts also say that children learn better and focus better in class when they have longer breaks.
The way I see it, this is why children should have longer breaks at school.
