The learning activity that I planned was to teach someone the different levels of education in Korean. This was fairly easy because of the connection between beginning, middle, and end that related to the different types of education. For example, beginning in Korean is “cho,” which relates to elementary school because it is the “beginning school.” Therefore, elementary school in Korean is “cho-dong hak-gyo.” The person that I taught was able to make this connection pretty easily and apply this concept to the other types of schools.
A challenge we ran into was when we were trying to understand the term “college” because it was “dae hak-gyo,” but the prefix is not one of the terms that means beginning, middle, and end. Therefore, this was a little harder to remember, but we were still able to do it! We may have run into some obstacles during this activity, but overall, it was pretty simple to understand because of the connections between the prefixes. This was interesting to learn because the prefixes also helped me to learn these terms, so I am glad that I was able to apply this concept to help someone else learn these words, too!
