8. Rinse the Dish Be sure to rinse all of the soap suds off of the dish using HOTwater and place it in the dish rack. Be sure to rinse off all of the soap. Soap can make you sick just like germs. You know what that means……..
The Dish Rack Once you have washed and rinsed your dish, it is a good idea to put it in the dish rack. The dish rack will allow extra water to drip into the sink while you wash the other dishes.
9. Dry the Dishes After you have washed all of your dishes and placed them in the dish rack, it is time to start drying. With your dish towel, dry all of the extra water off of the dish. If you put the dish away wet, new germs can make their way on to your dishes. A dry dish is a happy dish.
10. Put the Dish Away Now that your dish is clean and dry, put it back where it goes. This way, you know where it is the next time you want to use it.
