Definition: An act of exchanging or trading.
Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look! You’ve got the dictionary definition – “an act of exchanging or trading” – that’s a good start, it’s true. But what does that really mean? Think about it like this: ‘Exchange’ is all about giving something up and getting something in return. It's a swap, a trade, a deal! Let me give you some examples to help it stick: Trading cards: You might exchange your Pikachu card for a Charizard – you give one thing, you get another. Money: When you buy a sandwich at the deli, you exchange money for food. You’re giving up your cash and getting a tasty treat! Ideas: Sometimes we ‘exchange’ ideas with our friends - sharing thoughts and listening to theirs. It's not just about objects, mind you. It can be information too! So, 'exchange' means to swap, trade, or give and take. Do you understand now? Any questions before we move on?
