It is very interesting seeing the similarities of using the concrete objects and then paper visuals to support math concepts in Hungary to us in BC, Canada. In the teacher education program, we learn how this is an effective strategy to make connections from learners real lives to the math world in the classroom. Really enjoyed the video, thanks for sharing!

It is interesting to see whole class teaching. Here in New Zealand we mainly teach small groups.
