Frankie went to the Lady,
without dad and mom knowing about it
and asked: " Can I have 3 coconuts"?
Is that what you asked?
Yes!
Can you tell me what you asked?
"3 coconuts"
3 coconuts? Ok, and the lady brought the coconuts?
And who will pay for it?
Frankie!
Okay, this is how an average day, lunch, can look like.
We do not cook much at home for lunch . Oh! this is by the way Pen.
It's Tai Pen's restaurant.
I personally think that in the area where we are, this is the best restaurant.
We've tied them all.
So eating here is not expensive
I'm sure it's cheaper to cook at home and we are going to cook at home, some,
because, you know, when you eat the same type of food
and it's not your type of food and you're not use to it that much...
Although we love Thai, after, let's see, how many days are we here for already?
After 10 days of just Thai food, you might feel like, I don't know, your own spices
I'm just gonna buy some minced meat and pasta
Maybe some potatoes and vegetables and do a few dishes, or when I say I, I mean Serve- of course!
He's gonna cook a little bit for us
but we have to get to the market.
And to get to the market we need the car and we couldn't be bothered until today.
So we're probably gonna make an excursion and go to the market maybe tomorrow
but the day after...
and we're gonna like, buy a few like bins and things that I want to set up for the World Schooling
And then we're gonna buy up some some veggies and fruits and some other basic ingredients that we need for cooking at home.
So for a meal like this we pay, what some 500 baht maybe, with a big beer and that would be....
how much is 500 Baht in USD?
More or less 13 Euro.
Yeah, like 15 USD for the whole family. So it's really not expensive.
All right.
4000 Baht makes 100 Euro.
1000 Baht is 25 Euro.
God Oliver.
We have a good calculator. We won't get cheated during our trip.
World Schooling all the time. So math, what we do is we do math like this all the time.
We do exercises as well because Oliver needs to knogw how to write the numbers and the letters correctly and so on.
But, most of the calculations we will do like this.
So just calculating payments,
how much we have to pay
how much we have left.
You know and so on.
Really like, In the world, hands on, 3D exercises.
It's much more fun to do Math like that.
and it gets him very keen, because it becomes real life.
and gets him keen on doing the exercises afterwards as well.
Even if you don't World School full time, like us, you can World School on the side.
Explaining things to the children, instead of just sitting over a book.
Take him out, go to the garden,
have a look at his toys,
count, discount, remove , add...
all this basic math, which is really easy to do.
It's also easier for the brain to grasp when you can actually take on things.
I really recommend to do World Schooling with Math.
I think it makes very keen, math lovers, from the start.
Math doesn't discourage the child, doesn't become complicated, as something inaccessible,
something difficult, an obstacle.
It becomes something really practical and lots of fun to learn.
I think it's a good base.
Alright guys, now I'm going to eat before it gets cold.
Edwin where does the money come from,
that Frank paid with?
From the bank.
He took a bank card
He asked the lady for a bank card.
He put the bank card in the bank.
And after
he asked the lady: "can i have 3 coconuts?
and then he paid with the money that he got from the bank card.
Really?
Yes.
and wherew does the money in the bank come from?
It's from the bank.
So it's not our money then?
yes, yes , yes.
becasue people put money in our bank.That doesn't make much sense.
Oliver what do you think?
How will Frank pay?
He will pay becasue he'll give her a chair from our house.
which has the same value as the coconut,.
So he will exchange goods?
But we don't have a chair with us darling.
A swim pad?
I don't think the lady wants to be paid with that.
How will you pay Frank?
With his hat?
Frankie, come here, how will you pay the coconuts,
that you ordered?
With a marble.
With a marble?
Yes!
No, with a card.
So you have a card then?
A bill.
A bill?
And it comes from where? Do you have a bill?
Show me, where is it?
Someone took it.
Someone took your bill?
Yes, so you have to give me a bill.
So it's me who pays?
No, it's me , but give me a bill.
SO i give you the bill and you pay? Is that it?
Yes.
What do you think daddy?
I think that Edwin got half of what I told him about the bank.
How it works.
It's not bad. The card. People that put money in the bank.
It's a dificult concept to grasp.
You've got a card that gives money, where is the money from?
Bank gives!
Frank ordered coconuts. And i meant to get coconuts, but not here.
Here they are 50Baht.
In the shop they are 20Baht.
Just across the street.
So how much did we lose there Oliver?
30 Baht.
Each coconut...No! 90!
Loss 90 Baht.
What are you having there?
Oliver don't you have a fork?
I give you a little of everything.
Not my rice.
Not my rice.
Not mine. I am a rice "Lover"!
