This week.....
All the children who participated in the hearing & vision screening "passed"! This does not take the place of the eye exam they need for kindergarten. It is just a screening.
We talked about our teeth and what they are used for. We talked about about the "2's" of tooth care. Brush teeth 2 times a day for 2 minutes. Visit your dentist 2 times a year. We even set a timer for 2 minutes and pretended we were brushing our teeth. We used toothbrushes to paint a tooth and added some glitter for sparkle. We danced with scarves to the song "Let's go Fly a Kite" pretending to fly kites; and we learned a toothbrush song called, "Brusha Brusha." We did a categorizing activity-Which foods keep our teeth healthy?; played a dental health trail game; did a "teeth" dry erase letter identification activity; and listened for the/k/ sound in a game of "Cats & Kittens". The children watched a video about Chinese New Year. We read several books about Chinese New Year and talked about the Chinese Zodiac. It's the year of the "Dog".
Race to pick up the food with chopsticks as the wok shakes and rolls!
