Also, kids develop study habits, they learn how to set the goals for their school work and also they develop self-expression skills and cooperation skills.<\/p><p>In the first stage children often have one main teacher who teaches most of subjects and they are mostly having lessons in one and the same classroom (&#8220;home-class&#8221;).<\/p><p><strong>Stage II<\/strong> (grades 4 &#8211; 6) is where the system changes. Now children have many new teachers at once, and they also need to move between different classrooms for the different lessons. It resonates with the aim of the Stage II: in this stage children are expected to become more responsible and independent learners.<\/p><p><strong>Stage III<\/strong> (grades 7- 9) is the last stage of the basic school, thus, the last obligatory stage. Here, in addition to learning the subjects, the aim is to help pupils to develop into responsible members of society, who can independently manage everyday life and choose a further path for their life.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section
