Hi there! This is Karen from Mrs. Stamp's Kindergarten.
Right now we are in SNOWY catch up mode... since our SNOW day totals keep adding up (8 closings and 9 delays, plus we are already closed for Friday!).

Now, please know I.Am.Not.Complaining!! I have a 5 year old and a 9 month old at home... and I am enjoying EVERY minute. But, it does put somewhat of a crunch on your lesson plans.
So, this week (on 1 of the 2 days we were actually at school) we did an awesome science experiment that usually happens during Dental Health month--but got bumped into March. Luckily it fit in nicely with our planned week of a certain author's birthday celebration and tons of other great books about TEETH

We grew plaque! Trust me... if you're trying to teach your kiddos to remember to brush their teeth--this is the way to do it! You'll have kids grossed out for days... but seriously, isn't that why science is so much FUN!?
Here's how:
Your students will be promising to always brush their teeth after this one. It's easy to tell which cup had the sugar in it!
Here's a little sheet for recording the results. Just click on the picture to snag it!
Have FUN--whether you're catching up like we are (or planning ahead for next year)!
Pssst... I can't give any hints but you may want to hop by sometime soon...
