Brushing our teeth

We have been talking about brushing our teeth with Ginger over the last two weeks, the children have been very helpful to Gingers friend Honey Bear who needed to go visit the dentist.

They have explained to them how to brush their teeth and made posters.

Phonics and Handwriting Brain exercises!

 After phonics we get both sides of our brain to talk to each other. We pat our head and rub our tummies.

We march on the spot or around the hub.

 We learn how to touch the opposite knee with our opposite hand.

 

It is hard and we have to be determined. 

 Look at us we have got it... Can you practice at home?
