Dental Health Month

A couple of weeks ago we talked about Dental Health. Here is one of the activities we did.

Each child made these cute toothbrushes using a strip of construction paper and half of a 4x6 index card. We worked together to make the toothbrushes and fray the edges to look like the bristles. Then each child wrtoe something they had learned about keeping their teeth healthy on the toothbrush.

The purple toothbrush was made by one of my intervention group students who was so proud of herself for writing a complete sentence! :)

    That's a great project, SC! Children enjoy making artwork while learning about taking care of their teeth. As an educator, this is a win-win situation, don't you think?

    Elizabeth - Making learning fun is a great way to keep kids excited. I love doing craft/art projects that teach the kids something. Thanks so much for stopping by.
