Winkelier

M had his Dutch assembly today, a little show to highlight everything the kids had learned this year in Dutch class.  He was the Winkelier, the shopkeeper, and demonstrated a shopping transaction in which he sold a banana and an apple for 20 Euro.  At the end of the performance when the head teacher remarked that it was a very pricey shop he ran, he said he wanted to charge 30 Euro but he didn't know how to say that in Dutch!

The show was pretty impressive.  This year in Dutch class the kids learned their colors and numbers, how to have a shop transaction, names for foods, and about celebrations like Sinterklass and Queen's Day.  And they told us all about it in Dutch!
