Food preparation- Banana cutting (Care of person)

Dr. Montessori observed how the children interests were drawn to the daily activities that the adults performed.

At Ban Pangkorn School, We added the banana cutting Practical life activity on our shelf and the children have been happily performing the activity, as they refine their movement, hand and eye co-ordination and concentration.


We provided them with the necessary child sized materials along with detailed proper presentations to enable them participate in the daily activities of life and achieve success.
First the child washes his/her hand, rolls up their sleeves, peel the banana and dispose the peel into the provided dish. Then slice the banana into small pieces and uses a fork to transfer the pieces into a serving bowl. The child eats the banana without interference and sometimes they choose to share with  their friends. Later, the child washes the materials and replaces ready for the next person.
