I'm pretty sure that Dental health month is in February, but we are just getting to it as part of a larger community helpers unit. Today's theme was technically dentist. There are lots of pictures from today. It feels like we did a ton. (new addition at the bottom- 5/2013) Here are the books I read. Max Goes to the Dentist by Adria F. Klein and Clarabella's Teeth by An Vrombaut. The Max book was a good follow up to our special guest today and the Clarabella book was just a short cute book about an crocodile who spends all day brushing since she has a tiny brush. Our craft was a gluing activity. The kids glued paper squares for teeth onto a printed mouth sheet. I don't get to choose the crafts, we all do the same thing. I do miss planning the crafts but I don't miss preparing all the pieces. I didn't prepare this, so I'm not sure where he image of the mouth came from, but you could probably google image something and find a similar mouth. We had a guest speaker today. It was actually the first thing we did for the day. My dentist came in to speak. He's very good with the kids and was happy to come in. He's younger than I am, but it's cool. We did a sorting activity. I found all these pictures in just a small stack of magazines I borrowed from the paper recycling center. The little sad tooth says, "Sad tooth, sad tooth, full of tooth decay. Sweets and soda pop made me this way." The happy tooth says, "Happy tooth, happy tooth shiny and bright, brushing keeps me healthy and white." Bee gave it a test run at home. I laminated all the cutouts and they worked pretty well. We talked about cavities. This apple showed how a little hole in your teeth can get pretty yucky inside. I only left this out 1 night, I probably should have cut it out two or more days before so it would be super gross. Here was our snack, which we recreated for a snack at home. It's two apple slices with a layer of peanut butter in between. Mini marshmallows make the teeth. I boiled an egg in tea and stained it brown. I showed the kids a white egg and the brown egg. We took turns brushing the dirty egg (like a dirty tooth) with real toothpaste. During each friends turn, we sang: Brush, brush, brush your teeth at least 2 times a day cleaning, cleaning, cleaning, cleaning, fighting tooth decay. This picture is us trying it at home in advance. It really does come clean. mostly anyway. When we did it in class, I put the egg in a small bowl and place it on a tray. I also had a damp rag on the tray so the kids could wipe off their fingers. We also talked about flossing. I saw this activity somewhere years ago when I taught 2nd grade. The play dough represents food and gunk that gets in between your teeth. The yarn is the floss. You use the yarn just like floss and easily get out the food. The kids asked for this to be out after snack time and they took turns flossing and resetting. I'm sure I saw this counting activity somewhere online or I adapted it from another idea. I made up a paper mouth with marks for the teeth. We rolled the dice and added that many teeth. First I just made up one set, then I decided to make one for everybody. For the circle marks, I stamped a marker lid in some black ink. The teeth are mini marshmallows. These are the same marshmallows from a snow project so we had a good talk about not eating them. The last four pictures are activities from Musings of me. They are activities that I set out after snack. We aren't into the tooth fairy, so I downplayed that part and worked around it. We have another guest next week for firefighter week. Should be another fun one. addition 5/2013 Here's this years dental craft: I am linking up to some of these fine kiddo related parties: Wednesday's A story + art = A Great stART @ A Mommy's adventures, Wednesday's Kids Get Crafty @ Red Teg Art's Blog, Tuesday's Show and Tell blog hop ad ABC and 123, Tot Tuesdays at Delicious Ambiguity, For the Kids Fridays @ Sun Scholars

During the first three years of having PTSD (2007 - 2010), I felt like I had a Dinosaur Suit on that I couldn't take off. My reptilian brain was controlling everything, so it was like wearing a suit that I was seeing out of and that was influencing everything in my life.

Prospective and in-service teachers are the intended readers of this book. Teaching involves much more then dispensing knowledge. Teaching is a process of arranging activities that will enable individuals to learn and behave appropriately. The appropriateness of the activities depends on the degree they interact with the status of the targeted individuals. Just as physicians need to know about the nature of the human body and carpenters need to now about the nature of wood, teachers need to know about the nature of people that is related to learning and behavior. Thereby, the focus of this text is the relevant personal characteristics: the intellect, motivation, and sense of self each of which influence learning and behavior. Research findings and models within educational psychology are used to define the relevant human personal characteristics . In order to arrange meaningful activities teachers strive to achieve selected objectives. The text identifies four broad objectives within which specific lesson objectives can be identified. The objectives themselves and more particularly the proposed activities must be oriented around the personal characteristics of the targeted learners. Age, grade level, ethnic background, and gender are insufficient indicators of learner qualifications.. Relevant information for learning are within individual learners as exhibited through behavior. Observations are the key indicators of learner readiness to learn. The text recommends that students begin now to develop skills for identifying the status of learners and classroom conditions through interviews, noting various classroom behaviors, and analyzing the findings by developing portfolios. Small group discussions are encouraged so that students can share skills in analyzing real problems and thereby develop habits and skills for working with colleagues.

I love name art for many reasons, but the primary reason is because each person's project comes out completely different than everyone else's based solely on the shape of their name. Here's my version of the classic name art skeleton. Tip your head to the left to see my name if it isn't readily apparent. Materials: black construction paper, white paper, scissors, glue, and a pencil. Fold the white paper in half lengthwise and lightly write your name in cursive along the fold line. If your name has a letter that drops below the fold line (like the y in my name), skip the dropped part and continue with the 'tail' of the letter. Keeping the paper folded, cut out the name, staying about 1/8" away from the actual letters. If you are making this project with children who haven't learned cursive yet, simply have them print their name and then draw a bubble around the letters to connect them before cutting them out. When cutting, you can choose whether to cut out interior spaces (like my d or Trevor's e and o). It's too difficult for young children, but older ones can do so if they want. I did and Trevor didn't. After cutting out the name, open it up and place it vertically on the black paper. Use scraps to cut out arms, legs, hands, and feet. To make the skull, fold a small piece of white paper in half before cutting. This makes it easy to create a symmetrical shape. If you have a small hole punch, one quick punch on the folded skull will give you two perfectly round and perfectly placed eyes. Like I said, each name gives a completely different look. Even the way you orient a name makes a huge difference. Here is my my name facing the two different directions. It took me a long time to decide which I liked better before settling on the one on the right. Here's Trevor's finished skeleton. You may wonder why it is holding a sword. He was inspired by this minifig. He really wanted me to add a weapon to my skeleton. I'm not a weapons kind of person, so I jokingly cut out a small butter knife for my skeleton. It made Trevor laugh and he agreed that my skeleton could stay weapon-free.
