Commnity Helpers: Doctor and Dentist
Doctors help us when we are sick and need to feel better. Dentist helps us keep our teeth healthy and strong.
We read a book about Doctors and we learned all about what a doctor wears.
Chaim Tal was wearing a Doctor shirt.
Morah showed us a stethescope that checks our heart. Sometimes doctor make us take a deep breath when he uses it.
We learned about the blood pressure cup that doctors put around our arm and squeeze.
Sometimes doctors have to give us a shot. It hurts sometimes but just a little bit. Shots help us stay strong and healthy. Then the Doctor puts a bandaide on and sometimes gives a lollipop, prize, or sticker.
Morah showed us an otoscope. It helps doctors check our nose, ears, eyes, and mouth.
For our Community wall we worked together to make a doctors office.
We used bandaides like doctors to stick all over our doctors office. Morah showed us how to open them and we worked as a team to make it.
Morah taught us all about a Dentist. She showed us some teeth and we counted them and talked about all the different parts of our mouth.
To keep our teeth strong and healthy we need to brush them using a tooth brush and tooth paste.
We smelled the toothpaste. It smelled good.
We read a book about a visit to the dentist and learned how important it is to brush our teeth.
Morah let us get a turn brushing the teeth. We brushed up and down and side to side. We brushed the front and the back.
Morah showed us a picture of a tooth. Teeth are usually happy. They are are white but sometimes when we eat not healthy foods they can turn yellow or even brown.
Morah showed us some healthy foods we can eat and some not healthy foods we shouldn't eat too much.
A lollipop tastes yummy but it not healthy and makes our teeth sad. Morah pretended to eat the lollipop and then colored some brown on the tooth picture. The tooth looked sad.
Morah pretended to eat ice cream and then colored more brown on the picture tooth. The Tooth was also sad ice cream is yummy but not healthy.
If we eat apples, broccoli, and vegetables are teeth are happy. They are all healthy and we don't get yellow or brown on them when we eat these foods.
After eating a lot of unhealthy foods are teeth are yellow and brown but to clean them and keep them healthy, we brush them. Morah brushed away all the brown and yellow and made the picture tooth healthy and happy again.
