To solve this problem, we need to look at the picture and find things that are unsafe when using electricity. Then, we turn those unsafe things into safety rules.
Step 1: Analyze the first rule (Example)
The worksheet gives us the first rule: "Do not use electrical appliance near water."
* *Why?* In the picture, there is a radio sitting on a table right next to a sink with running water. Water and electricity are dangerous together.
Step 2: Find other unsafe situations in the picture
Let's look around the rest of the kitchen for more problems:
1.
The Floor: There are many wires and plugs tangled up on the floor. Someone could trip over them. Also, the washing machine plug seems to be near a puddle of water on the floor.
2.
The Oven/Stove: There is a pot boiling on the stove, but no one is watching it. Steam is coming out. Leaving cooking appliances on without supervision is dangerous.
3.
The Washing Machine: The door is open, and a child is leaning inside. This is very dangerous because of the moving parts and electricity.
4.
Overloaded Sockets: Look at the wall socket near the sink. It looks like too many things might be plugged in or it's being used carelessly near the water splash zone.
5.
Damaged Cords: The wires on the floor look messy and tangled. Tripping over cords can pull appliances down or damage the wires, which causes sparks.
Step 3: Turn these observations into safety rules
Now, let's write these as clear instructions for b, c, d, e, and f.
* *Observation:* Wires are all over the floor.
* *Rule:* Keep floors clear of loose wires so people do not trip.
* *Observation:* A pot is boiling on the stove with no one watching.
* *Rule:* Never leave cooking appliances on if you are not watching them.
* *Observation:* A child is climbing into the washing machine.
* *Rule:* Do not put hands or body parts inside washing machines or dryers while they are plugged in.
* *Observation:* Plugs are near water on the floor.
* *Rule:* Make sure your hands are dry before touching plugs or switches.
* *Observation:* General messiness with cords.
* *Rule:* Unplug appliances when you are finished using them.
Here are five suitable answers to complete the list:
Final Answer:
b. Keep electrical cords off the floor so people do not trip over them.
c. Never leave cooking appliances on the stove unattended.
d. Do not touch electrical switches or plugs with wet hands.
e. Unplug appliances when you are not using them.
f. Keep children away from large appliances like washing machines.
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of electrical safety worksheet.
