As Year 6s, the children will need to be more independent around the home so we learnt how to use the kitchen safely on our own.
We discussed making toast with the toaster and using a grill. We decided it would be safer to use the grill with an adult around but we could use the toaster on our own. At home, ask us how we can use the toaster safely – we should have loads of tips!
We talked about that pesky situation where your piece of toast is too small and you can’t get it out safely with your hands.
We know how to use the hob safely so we can cook our beans to go on toast.
And, we learnt the dos and don’ts when cooking jacket potatoes in the microwave.
Finally, we finished with pudding and now know how to make the safest hot chocolate. Ask us to make you a tea, coffee or hot chocolate – we can do it safely.
The children were really interested and involved in the whole session with lots of suggestions and questions to further their learning.
