Sharing our maths ideas

We are learning to talk about our ideas in maths. We are learning to listen to each other and ask others for support when we don't understand. We know that everybody has something valuable to contribute in each discussion.  Our teacher was very proud that we persevered even when it was challenging.  Our teacher was very happy to see us collaborating and sharing our ideas about our learning.  Ka pai Room 21.

Chinese Language Week - Day 2 - Tuesday

In researching how to write Tuesday in "Chinese" I was aware there are at least 3 languages including Shanghainese, Cantonese and Mandarin. It's not as straight forward as that. Earlier, I chose a translation that I thought was dragon in a class activity today. The fluent Cantonese and Mandarin speakers in my class did not recognise the symbol. I was embarrassed that I had made a mistake which is one of the pitfalls of cross-cultural analysis. There are always positive outcomes for every situation and we were able to have a discussion about where the symbol may have originated. Another positive outcome is that I am extremely aware of my cultural limitations. So this will result in me asking more questions, seeking more input from experts in our class and in the community.

One of the challenges this week is to; LEARN - the signs o...
