Something to note for teaching angles (primary 4)

Hey comrades of Primary 4 Math,

Remember NOT to use "obtuse" and "acute" to label your angles. The children are NOT required to learn these terms and the terms are not in syllabus. Don't get yourself into trouble. Change the words to "more than 90 degrees" for "obtuse" and "less than 90 degrees" for "acute".

Yep, hope this post helps to prevent you from getting mark down for your observation.

Jia You!

The object of teaching a child is to enable him to get along without a teacher.
- Elbert Hubbard (1856-1915) American author, editor and printer.

I know that we ought to avoid such words cos super 'The Technical'. However, my CT wants me to introduce those terms and I cannot say 'NO'. But as far as NIE is concerned, yeah.. Avoid those Jar-Gens. (Broken England nrm mind la hor :)
