Community Helpers and Dental Health

We had a fun and busy week with covering two themes of Community Helpers and Dental Health.  We talked about a variety of different jobs people do and jobs that we might like to do when we grow up.  We also talked about how we can take care of our teeth and gums by eating healthy foods and brushing our teeth well.  We practiced "flossing" by using yarn (floss) to get out playdough (plaque/food) out of our Duplo LEGO blocks (teeth).  We also made faces with 15 teeth to help us with our teen counting.  We also made our own communities with different shapes and little community helpers of our choice.  I also took pictures of each kiddo and asked them what they would want to be when they grow up.  So cute to see their responses!  Hope you enjoy our pics from the week!

We worked on a combination of skills at Mrs. Hannah's table this week, and we also worked on learning and tracing our last name as well.

We practiced our cutting skills.

We made our own little communities out of a variety of shapes and then chose our own little community helpers as well.

 

 

We drew pictures of who we wanted to be when we grow up.

 We worked on writing our numbers 1-10 on our own without anyone tracing the numbers for us.  This was pretty tough for some, but Mrs. Susie wrote them out for us to see and used our little rhymes to help us remember how to make our numbers correctly.

 

We hunted for the letter "O" on our dotter sheet.

We cut out and sorted foods between things that are healthy for our teeth and not healthy for our teeth.

 

We made our own circle faces and glued on 15 teeth to work on counting up to 15.

 We shared our letter "O" items in Show and Tell.

We had 3 octopuses.

 We had 1 bag of oils.

We had 1 otter.

 

 We had 2 owls.

 

 We had 3 oranges.

These are the jobs of the future! :)

We listened to Floyd County Detective George Schultz talk to us about what it's like to do his job.

Here are all of our cute little community helpers!  Too sweet!

Mrs. Susie read to us at the end of the day about how to take care of our teeth.

Addy was our student of the week and shared the "All About Me" basket.

We had some playtime with friends.

We had some fun in the MIM room getting our wiggles out.

Finally, we got a chance to play outside on one of the warmer days this week!

Have a blessed week!
