This week we finished up our Happy, Healthy Me unit! This week we focused on dental health.
On Monday, we watched a brainpop video on visiting the dentist. Then, the students brainstormed in groups...
1. How we can keep our teeth healthy?
2. What do we use our teeth for?
3. What foods are bad for our teeth?
After, each group presented their ideas to the class.
On Tuesday, we read a story called, "Sam's Science: I Know Why I Brush My Teeth." Then we did an experiment. We had two eggs, we put one egg in coffee and another egg in coca-cola. The students predicted that the coffee and coke would stain the eggs. Some students also thought the egg would crack in the hot coffee! The students were right! The coffee and coke did stain the egg. After, we talked about why sugary drinks are not good for our teeth.
To end our unit, the students had to complete a healthy, happy me booklet!
