Today the children in EYFS were visited by Kirsty and Ellie, a dentist and dental nurse, who delivered a workshop on how to look after our teeth. We discussed why it’s important to brush our teeth for two minutes twice a day and played a game which prompted us to think carefully about which foods help to keep our teeth healthy. The children also loved getting a sticker at the end! 😀
This workshop has supported children in answering our expedition question ‘How do things grow and change?’. For the next two weeks we are continuing to explore how our bodies develop from birth and how we can make the best choices to help them grow. Today we learned that brushing our teeth is a great way to start!
