What are the Healthy Teeth Clip Cards?
⌄
Three pages after the cover. Pages 1 and 2 have 12 cards, each with a tooth and 6 foods, asking Which food keeps me healthy? or Which food gave me a cavity?, with foods like banana, water, candy, cheese, soda and broccoli. Page 3 asks children to circle foods that keep teeth healthy and cross out those that cause cavities. The answer key lists both.
Can I use the Healthy Teeth Clip Cards at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for Kindergarten to 2nd Grade science activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many Kindergarten to 2nd Grade healthy teeth resources are there?
⌄
1 printable resource, free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are healthy teeth resources for?
⌄
These are written for Kindergarten to 2nd Grade students, roughly ages 5-8. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these healthy teeth resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Kindergarten to 2nd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
