February is National Dental Health Month and to celebrate we had a special visitor! Leah Hoffhines, a soon to be graduate from the dental hygiene program at JCCC, talked with our class about oral health. Each student received a toothbrush and floss. Then they had the opportunity to practice brushing and flossing under her guidance. She also discussed the dangers of tobacco use and how to prevent tooth decay. Leah left us with a few tips for a healthy smile:
Tip 1: Brush twice a day for 2 minutes
Tip2: Floss Daily
Tip 3: Visit the dentist on a regular basis
Tip 4: Eat healthy foods to prevent cavities
Tip 5: Stay away from tobacco products
Thanks Leah!

It is that time of the year again to put together a basket for the PTO Bingo Night! PTO does so much for our school and our class wants to present them with an awesome basket! This year we came up with the theme “Keep Busy Basket.” We would like to include items that someone might use to fill their time. We were thinking items like coloring books, arts and crafts stuff, magazines, books, comics, puzzle books, games, cards, movies….whatever you can think of! We will tie the general theme of the basket together with some “busy bees!” If you are able to donate an item or would like to send in a few dollars towards the purchase of items, we would greatly appreciate it! I would like to collect all of the items by March 2. We will put a picture of the final basket on the blog for everyone to see! Thank you!
