Definition: Actions performed to keep some machine or system functioning or in service.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a peek,
At ‘maintenance,’ a word we need to speak!
The dictionary gives us a helpful line,
“Actions performed to keep things fine!”
Think of it like this, my little friends so bright,
Keeping machines working with all their might.
It's not just fixing when something’s truly broke,
But regular care – a thoughtful stroke!
Like oiling gears or changing a tire you see,
Or updating software for efficiency!
Maintenance means to
preserve
and
protect
,
So things keep running smooth, that’s correct!
It's about preventing problems from appearing,
And keeping everything working, year after year.
Does that make sense? Any questions arise?
