Game teaching guide
What children will practise
Use and put away tools safely: carry scissors tips down, pass sharp things handle first, clean and put tools back after use, tell an adult when something breaks, and know the stove is an adult's job.
What's in the worksheet
6 questions, multiple choice with 3 options each - Scissors: hold them tips down and don't run - Passing something sharp: handle toward the receiver (not tossing it gently) - Something breaks on the floor: tell an adult at once, don't pick up the glass - The stove: adults only - Wash hands before cooking so germs don't get into the food
How to use it in class
Use before the first lesson that needs scissors, a cutter or kitchen tools. 5 minutes. - Play solo, then have children who answered correctly demonstrate questions 1 and 2 with round-tipped scissors - If many miss question 1, show what could happen to your face if you trip holding scissors tips up - Agree class rules for tools from the game's answers and post them by the tool corner - Play it linked to a class and the scores go into the class gradebook.
Common sticking points
- In question 1, choosing tips up so it is easy to see, which sounds careful; explain that if you fall, upward tips hit your face - In question 5, choosing a child's, if careful, because some have helped fry eggs at home; listen, then stress that at school the stove is an adult's job - In question 3, choosing leave it on the table for tomorrow, a common classroom habit
