Groundhog's Day was so much fun as we got to play with our groundhog on a stick. Not only did we learn what a groundhog was, but the concept of opposites was introduced---in and out, up and down.
After Groundhog's Day, and studying shadows, what better Valentine's Day gift for mom and dad than a shadow of myself. Some of their silhouettes looked like them, but many of them looked more like that scampering groundhog who couldn't wait to escape back into play.
Here young Dr. Carter shares her wealth of knowledge with her fellow friends. I wonder if she too will follow in her dad's footsteps????????
We were very grateful to Tess's Dad, Dr. Carter who gave each one of us a dental kit so we could practice all we learned about good oral hygiene this week. To show our appreciation, we decorated extra large teeth to give him.
Our happy and sad teeth helped us distinguish healthy and unhealthy foods for our teeth. The only problem was what we thought was good food wasn't always good for our teeth, however we got the hang of it after a few rounds.
We made a healthy" munchy mouth" snack of apple slices and peanut butter. The peanut butter held in our very white marshmallow teeth. :)
The children are junior dentist getting the black cavities out of the teeth. How intensely those little hands worked.
Ms Angela did an experiment to show what our teeth would look like if we didn't brush them by soaking a hard boiled egg in sugary coke. We all decided we didn't want our teeth to look like that brown egg. YUCKY!!!!!!!!!!
Ms Angela read us a book about the proper way to brush our teeth and then we practiced with our paper toothbrushes.
We looked at our teeth in individual mirrors and discussed the importance of brushing.
