Keeping Our Teeth Healthy

Today we were fortunate to listen to a fantastic presentation on dental health. The students learned what they should eat and what they can do to keep their teeth clean and healthy. We captured some of this learning in pictures today, shown in the Animoto Slideshow below.



The Grade 1/2 students then worked in partners to reflect on their learning, and share what they learned with others too. This activity matches up perfectly with our Grade 1 Social Studies unit on Community Helpers and our Grade 2 Health Unit on Healthy Foods. We hope that you enjoy our presentations too!






















We'd love to know what you know about keeping teeth clean and healthy. Please help us learn by leaving a comment here. Thanks for your help!

That's really nice. I've been advocating dental health awareness to children in my neighborhood. Sometimes we also have a presentation like this. It is just great to convince kids that dental hygiene is fundamental, and they should not be afraid of the dentist.
