Foundation

Foundation students have been continuing their learning of colour names in Japanese. This week, they took part in a fun "Jellybean Challenge"! Students estimated how many jellybeans of each colour were in a packet, then opened it to count and record their results. They created a colourful graph and practised using the sentence "I like (colour)" to express which jellybean they would like to eat.
