A big welcome to all the new Funtime kids!
We are working on a community helpers unit, that will continue until spring break. Last week, our focus was on Dentistry.
Wednesday we painted a yellow tooth (yuck) with white paint. Our paintbrush for this fun craft was a toothbrush. The goal was to cover the entire yellow or plaque cover tooth with white paint. The kids had fun making sure there was no more plaque on their tooth.
On Friday, we had a visit from a dental assistant, Leah, who taught us all how to properly brush. She talked about making sure we get rid of all the sugar bugs hiding in our mouth. She also taught us that kids have 20 teeth and adults have 32 (unless you are missing your wisdom teeth). The kids enjoyed watching her brush the big teeth with the big toothbrush. She gave us all a toothbrush to help us with those naughty sugar bugs!! Thanks Ms. Leah!
Each class did get some time in the gym to run off some energy and play with balls.
This week we will continue our community helpers unit. We will be talking about mail carriers.
If you know of any community helpers who would be willing to come in and talk to our classes, please let me know.
Reminders:
Please continue to wash hands with soap and water before coming to class.
Please help your child go to the bathroom before class.
No school Friday March 11
Spring break March 14-18
