Fluoride Treatment

For not so long ago two dentist were here and checked our teeth.
First, we received a toothpick to clear between the teeth,
when we were finished with that we got a fluoride treatment,
it is a treatment for teeth its tastes not so much.
The dentists come once a month to look at our teeth.
There were no scary dentist they were happy and kind.
So you need not to worry!

Semla

This Tuesday was ”semledagen” in Sweden. It's a day when very many eat buns with marzipan and whipped cream. “Semledagen” is also called “fat Tuesday”. It is a tradition in Sweden. In the past, people ate the bun before they were going to fast because it is full of calories. Nowadays people eat “semla” not just for a day. You can buy it almost the whole winter and a little bit till the spring. //Anna Clara

Finally winter has arrived!

This afternoon some of the students went ice skating! The sun was out in a clear blue sky and it was nice and cold!

Grades

Hi.
In school we get grades. Here in Sweden we have four different grades. We have IG, G, VG, and MVG. It stands for ”Not acceptable”, ”Acceptable”, ”Well acceptable” and ”Very well acceptable.” In all our classes, except the "pupils choice" hour, we get grades. We get our grades the first time when we go in the 8th grade. If we wan't to go on with our education we need these grades to get in a good school. You need to have good grades if you want that.

I was wondering what grades you get in the other countries. Is it like ours?
