„VIð megUm RÁðA þegAR VIð eRUm búIn með bækURnAR“ 30 Þakkir Rannsóknarsjóður í umsjón Rannís og Rannsóknarsjóður Mennta- og leikskólasviðs Reykjavíkurborgar veittu mikilvæga styrki til þessarar rannsóknar sem hér með eru þakkaðir. Greinarhöfundur þakkar einnig Sigríði Sturludóttur, meistaranema við menntavísindasvið Háskóla íslands, fyrir aðstoð við rannsóknina og Gunnhildi Ósk- arsdóttur fyrir yfirlestur og gagnlegar ábendingar. abstraCt The article describes a study of 1st grade children’s views on starting primary school, on the primary school curriculum, and democracy at the start of primary school. The study was conducted with 20 six and seven year old children in two primary schools in Reykjavík, Iceland. Data gathering included varied research methods such as group interviews, children’s photographs and children’s drawings to elicit children’s per- spectives and opinions. Findings revealed individual differences among the children in regard to their experiences during the first months of school. Many of the children mentioned reading and mathematics when they were asked what they learned in school. Most of the children mentioned free time, recess, and playing with other child- ren as the most enjoyable part of school. Reading and mathematics were the most difficult and boring parts. The participating children did not experience democratical practices in school and did not find that they had any influence on the school curricul- um.
