This idea
may have originally came from Mailbox magazine but I'm not positive because it came to me from a teammate. {Thanks Leslie!!} It's a great craft to display what you've learned about teeth and you don't have to print, cut out or laminate anything! :) With sentence strips, crayons, strips of copy paper and a glue stick, you too can have your very own...
Ginormous toothbrush!!!
Don't mind the one who decided to glue before the directions were given out... ;)
Seriously great, right?! And so so easy. Write dental health facts on the "bristles" then decorate the "handle" and glue the writing to the top. Ta-da! Simplicity. You can print or cut out little toothpaste swirls for your student names for a little more flair.
Happy brushing! Don't forget to floss! {well, at least like twice a year before you go see your dentist...}
Too cute!! We have been learning about Dental Health too! I just posted about it too!! Stephanie
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love these!! Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteLove this bulletin board! And the one that didn't follow directions is cracking me up - we all have one in our class!

Kristin: My reader described the new background on your blog, with all the photos of shoes, and it really fits you! Also, I really like the toothbrush idea. I very rarely see any fun teaching ideas for health, even though we're required to teach it, so it was really nice to see this post.
ReplyDeleteI just put up a new post about cupcakes on my blog, with lots of freebies. Something is telling me that you'll like them. :)
Have a wonderful Valentine's week!
