In extending our experience with our Celery Food Colouring Experiment, we will be cutting the left over celeries using a knife.

In this experience a close and one to one supervision will be given to each child using a knife.

Before we start our cutting activity, each child were given a stalk of celery and they were asked to remove all the leaves. We counted together each leaf they remove from the stalk. Once they were finished taking all the leaves out, they waited patiently for their turn to cut their celery.

Each child will have a chance to hold a knife and cut their celery and eat them. Children were safely able to hold the knife properly and sliced the celery quickly, they even showed their friends how to do it!
