Diplomová práce je zaměřena na hodnoty a hodnotovou orientaci dětí mladšího školního věku. Nejdříve jsme shromáždili informace o hodnotách, hodnotové orientaci a souvisejících oblastech. Dotazníkovou metodou bylo zjištěno, co považují za hodnoty děti mladšího školního věku. Práce vyúsťuje v projekt, kde jsou dětem prezentovány hodnoty obsažené v průřezových tématech Rámcově vzdělávacího programu pro základní vzdělávání.The thesis paper has two parts: theoretical and practical. The theoretical part presents information I gathered about values and related areas, who influences the values of children and what the new educational law tells us in regard to this topic. The practical part is also divided into two parts: research and a project for pupils. The research was done among grades three, four and five in Czech and Swedish primary schools. The aim was to have enough information in order to compare pupils from various areas, ages, sexes, types of schools and even from different countries. I acquired such interesting material from the research that I was able to prove my hypotheses afterwards. In my project, I tried to present and pass on the values from the educational law to the children. I included all the recommended areas and used role playing, games, discussions and other entertaining activities.
