Home Management Paper 2, May/June 2015

Question 2

The candidates were asked to explain five laundry terms. They were able to answer the question correctly but some of the candidates missed stain removal and stain remover, they were unable to state the difference. Some candidates use the term to answer the question e.g sorting is the sorting of dirt clothes according to colour or fabric types instead of using the word separating .While some wrote on mending as the second step in washing and it is  very necessary instead of  stating that mending is the  hand or machine stitching of tears or ribs  before washing, so tears will not get larger etc.
