A look before you play
A few real prompts from the game to help you choose an activity for your class.
Always wash your hands first, then prepare, then clear up.
Set the plates first, then the cutlery and the glasses.
Scrape the food off first and it washes faster.
Before you play
Put simple kitchen jobs a Grade 1 child can help with in order: preparing fruit as a snack, laying the table, washing up and storing leftovers, with attention to hygiene and safety such as washing hands first and having an adult help with knives.
4 rounds, a put-in-order game with 4 steps each - Snack: wash your hands > wash the fruit > cut or peel it with an adult's help > arrange it on a plate - Laying the table: wipe the table > plates > cutlery > glasses - Washing up: scrape the food off > wash with detergent > rinse the suds away > stand to drain - Leftovers: let it cool > lidded container > close the lid > into the fridge
Use in a kitchen-skills lesson or just before a real snack-making activity. 8-10 minutes. - Have children mime each step before ordering it, such as washing hands or standing plates to drain - Play in pairs who must agree before submitting - If many get round 4 wrong, ask "What happens if we put hot food straight into the fridge?" - Play it linked to a class and the scores go into the class gradebook.
- In round 2, swapping cutlery and glasses, since nothing forces one before the other; accept it in discussion and explain the game uses plates, cutlery, then glasses - In round 4, putting food in the fridge before letting it cool, thinking the fridge cools it faster - In round 1, washing the fruit before washing hands; stress that hands must be clean before touching any food
