Legal Grounds in Favour of Education and Social Integration through Physical Education
Abstract. The Romanian legislation, in line with the international norms, provides the child with the right to education and to plenary, harmonious development of personality, vocations, mental and physical skills. All components of physical health – social, mental, emotional and spiritual health – alongside an active lifestyle contribute to the fulfilment of the above mentioned goals. The article is a plea based on legal Romanian grounds for physical education which the child has the right and possibility to practice in an organized setting – the school. We also discuss some causes for which quite a few parents in Romania encourage or support children not to attend the physical education classes under multiple pretexts, emphasizing the negative effects that such an attitude has upon society.

Writing Grasps – Modified Classification
Absract. The manuscript presents some results of a screening for writing grasps and postural control among students in the primary school age. During a 15-minute dictation in class, the kids were observed for their writing grasps, the position of the hips (presence or absence of physiological lordosis) and bad scoliotic posture. We observed 128 children, aged 7 – 10 years. elaborated a more profound classification according to different variables, searched for dependencies between the different grasps and the posture.

Educational Potential of Bulgarian Language and Literature and Foreign Language School Curricula for Developing Intercultural Competence
Absract. Статията има за цел да представи резултати от анализ на учебните програми по предметите „Български език и литература“ и „Чужд език“ за IV клас на началния етап на основната образователна степен на българското училище с оглед на възпитателния им потенциал за формиране на интеркултурна компетентност в училищна среда. В тази връзка, ще се търси наличието на елементи, съдействащи за формирането на интеркултурност, а именно – толерантност, емпатия, солидарност, противопоставяне на насилието, равнопоставеност и недопускане на дискриминация, както и положителна комуникативна нагласа. Те са свързани с нравственото, интеркултурното и светогледното възпитание и биха били подходящи за включване в учебното съдържание в часовете по езици в рамките на училищното образование, съответно наличието им в официалните документи на Министерството на образованието ще бъде разглеждано като потенциал по отношение на възпитателната работа в тази насока.
