Vávrová, Gabriela ; Vojíř, Karel (advisor) ; Pavlasová, Lenka (referee)
Reading literacy is indispensable literacy for every individual on his way through education and his future full-fledged application in everyday life. Each state aims to increase the level of educational attainment in the country. To develop pupils' reading skills can help them to achieve better results in education, including in science education. For the possibility of developing reading skills, it is necessary to map their current situation in elementary schools. The aim of this work was to map the reading skills of pupils in the teaching of biology at the lower secondary school. For this purpose, a set of six worksheets containing three-tier tasks was created and was solved by 110 pupils in the lower secondary school. When creating the three- tier tasks, the author relied on the theoretical starting points of this work, which include the issues of scientific literacy and reading literacy, including the results of Czech pupils in the tests on literacy skills, the Czech curriculum system and the typology of learning tasks. From the evaluation of the worksheets, it was found that the students answered all the questions from the set of worksheets with an average success rate of 57 %. According to gender, the success rate difference was statistically insignificant.

Integrative Approach to Poetry in the Sixth Grade of Lower Secondary School
Pretschner, Adéla ; Komberec, Filip (advisor) ; Doležalová, Eliška (referee)
The presented thesis deals with the integration of the components of Czech Language and Literature, i. e. the integration of Communication and Composition, Language, and Literary Education. Regarding the literary texts, which are the content of Literary Education, the thesis focuses on poetic texts. The aim is to defend the irreplaceability of poetry in human life, and therefore to defend its place in primary and lower secondary education. Based on scholarly literature, the thesis finds the importance of poetry not only in its specific use of language which, when perceived, develops logical thinking about language and provides an aesthetic experience, but also in its ability to stimulate the emotional aspect of personality. Through this stimulation, poetry can help students to reflect on their emotions, to better understand themselves, and ultimately to better understand the world around them. The second aim is to contribute to discussions about the change of CLL teaching which is currently very unintegrated. The thesis presents an integrated approach to teaching CLL, inspired by the concept of integrated teaching of Slovak Language and Literature for primary education. As the components of the subject are inherently intertwined, by interconnecting them in teaching, students can naturally learn and...

Education about menstruation at the lower secondary schools by external subjects
Matulíková, Dagmar ; Dvořáčková, Jana (advisor) ; Kobová, Ĺubica (referee)
The master diploma thesis concentrates on the issue of education about menstruation at lower secondary schools. Through qualitative interviews with external subjects who run workshops or lectures related to the topic of menstruation at schools, I have mapped the ways of teaching about this phenomenon. The primary objective of my work is to inform about the topics that are directly connected to the education about menstruation. Last but not least, I believe my work goes beyond the physical education and into the sociocultural area and seeks to destigmatize the natural physical process that menstruation is.

The educators also agreed that they thought that the selected school did not sufficiently support gifted students and that the gifted student did not have the opportunity to develop their abilities, skills and other talents to the maximum in the regular classroom. Respondents also stated that they do not differentiate teaching methods during their teaching and meet one to two exceptionally gifted students over two years. KEYWORDS Gifted child,...
