How do Potato Peelers Work?

We have been learning how to write an explanation. We used a potato peeler and then used that experience to write an explanation on how a potato peeler works.




How do peelers work?
First you hold the carrot. Then you peel. Peelers peel skin off carrots. A peeler is made of many parts called wedge, lever and blades. I like peelers because they are sharp.

They have sharp blades and a plastic handle. It has a wedge on top of it. It helps us to peel a potato. We need to push the peeler to make it work. Some of the skin comes out. We are learning how to use a potato peeler. We scrap yucky bit because we don’t want to eat the yucky bit. By Ranya   


We use potato peelers to peel apples, carrots and potato.  When it is your first time you might scrap yourself. It looks like it is very sharp. The parts on the potato peeler are the wedges and the blade. How it works is you need to push it but not too hard. Then you push it towards your thumb. Potato peelers are a machine. By Georgie

Potato peelers peel potato skin and apple skin off. A potato peeler looks long and sharp and pointy. They have a blade to help you peel. Hold the potato, then scrape towards you. Peelers are handy because they can peel fruit and vegetables skin off. By Macky
