I am glad to hear they were enjoying.
In fact, Korean usually do not have a knife with a retangular knife which is used by Chinese often. I have a cutting board and a grater. However I was thinking of the cutting board at that time. Children are much smarter than I am. I could not think other things except the board.

Thank you for replying!

Best regard,

Joy

Dear Joy,

Thank you for commenting and quizzing us!

We think the answer could be:
– a knife with a rectangular blade?
– or maybe it’s a chopping board?
– or maybe it’s a rectangular grater?

Did we guess correctly?
Thank you for making us think!

Kind regards,
Grade 4

This is so so cool! You have found math stuff around school. Now I can find some shapes in my kitchen. Guess what I found! I use it to cut and it’s a rectangle.
