🦷✨ All things teeth in 4th Class! ✨🦷
Our 4th Class scientists have been busy learning all about teeth and dental health! 🔍📚 From exploring the different types of teeth to discovering their important jobs, we’ve been getting to grips with what makes our smiles so special! 😁
To bring our learning to life, the children also got creative and designed their very own 3D tooth models! 🦷🎨
Science, creativity and lots of hands-on learning — what a fantastic experience!
