Dental Health Week in Kindergarten

This week we are studying Dental Health, and I found this fun project we did in class today.  There was not a template so I just created a blackline master of a pair of lips, and copied it onto red construction paper on the copier.  We did not use the stick, but it looks like fun that way!  To add a math angle to it, after kids added the marshmallows for teeth, I had them count how many teeth there were, and write the number on their lips project.  They turned out very cute, and they did a great job counting.  I am trying to cover multiple subjects when doing art these days, with so much to cover in the new Common Core State Standards.

I found this on Pinterest, and it is from Mrs. Winter's website at: http://prekwithmrswinter.blogspot.com/2013/02/dental-health-and-hygine.html.  Thanks for sharing!
