Healthy Teeth Unit

This was the week for last minute Unit studies. The kids love when I do them, but I usually miss awesome ideas because I have thrown them together. And so is the story with this unit. Due to all that Halloween candy I thought it was a good time to talk about healthy teeth.

What we did:

  • Talked about brushing our teeth 2 times a day.
  • Completed this small writing unit from What the Teacher Wants

(This unit contains teeth writing pages that focus on, finding the mistakes in a sentence, and writing it correctly, Writing Facts, Parts of a letter, poetry, writing sequence)

  • Practiced proper brushing techniques -this was fun, I participated so I couldn’t get pictures, I brushed my teeth, and they copied what I did.
  • They made some ‘Sad teeth’, ‘Happy teeth’ pictures. I got this idea from 2 Teaching Mommies.
  • We watched an episode of Sid the Science Kid about teeth.
