The purpose of this study is to increase the knowledge of professional teachers’ experiences of learning with the help of body movement in the subject of Swedish. Qualitative interviews have been used as an instrument for research. The results derive from the answers of five respondents who are all professional teachers of children between the grades f-6 (ages 6 to12). The answers contribute to providing an understanding of teachers’ views on the link between body movements and learning in the subject of Swedish. The essay shows that the teachers have experiences of body movements in the subject of Swedish and what type of exercises they prefer in the subject of Swedish. The results also show that teachers prefer exercises that build on modeling and that movements are thought of as a means of increased concentration and motivation rather than as part of a didactic strategy.
