Snow man or Man snow? Word order in different languages.

There is nothing more exciting than a spontaneous investigation into word order. Finding out that in Hebrew, you write from right to left and the fact that in Japanese there is no direct translation for the word snowman was fascinating for the Year 3 students. What started as a small comparison, grew bigger and bigger as everyone wanted to add their language. At ISH we value all languages equally and celebrate moments like this!
