About the Scythe
A scythe is a hand tool with a long, curved blade on a tall handle, once used to cut grass and harvest grain by hand. A worker swung it in wide sweeps, laying down the tall stalks in neat rows before machines took over the job. It takes a smooth, rhythmic motion to use one well. Trace the curve of the blade on this printable and follow the path across the field.
