We have officially exceeded the amount of memory that Google allows for a blog.  We will now be retiring this blog site, and all new posts will be found at http://www.dhscdc3.blogspot.com/.  This blog will continue to exist for anyone who wants a walk down memory lane.

On Thursday we read "Going to the Hospital".
Bailey showed the children different items that they might see at a hospital and explained what they are used for.  She even brought real x-rays for the children to see. 
Lexie had the children use white paint on black paper to create their own x-rays.
Michelle brought a stethescope and helped the children listen to their own heart beats. 
We also made lava lamps as a science experiment. 

On Friday we read, "My Dentist, My Friend."
Kelbie taught the children a poem about teeth while they colored and cut-out a picture of a tooth.

Sara A. brought each of the children a toothbrush and toothpaste and she talked to them about the importance of brushing their teeth every day.  She also brought some wind-up chatter teeth for the children to see.

Sara S. played a math game using tooth cut-outs.

Kristine brought a Playdo dentist set for the children to play with.

Emily had the children do a cake-walk with pictures representing different things found in a dentist office.

Jessica had the children make paper plate mouths with marshmallows as teeth.

Today we read "Going to the Doctor".
We played a bandaid matching game. 
We made our own bandaid boxes. 
I'm not sure what this group was doing but it looked cute. 
After that we had fun playing doctor.
