This term we will be concentrating on non-fiction writing. Today, we wrote our own instructions for brushing our teeth. We spoke about the importance of making sure our instructions are written in the right order.
In the afternoon we learned about the structure of a tooth. We learned that the outer layer is called enamel, the layer under that is called dentine and the middle is very soft and called pulp. We made our own paper models of the layers of the tooth and labelled them.
Here is a good website for learning about the structure of a tooth.
love reading all the things P3 get up to in class, you are all so busy I don’t know how you get it all done. The tooth project looks fun. Keep up the good work P3
Thank you Mrs Cargill. We are super busy just now but having fun and learning lots!
I think it is really good how you are teaching 3s about teeth.
I am looking forward to making our toothpaste boxes and adverts!
We are going to the dentist on Friday if Flat Stanley wouldd like to come we will be leaving at 11.30 and will hopefully be back for 1.30 – as our dentist is in Dundee. Hope Flat Stanley can make it .

Hello Mrs Cargill. Yes, Stanley has been complaining of toothache for a wee while now. I think he has been eating too many of the sweeties out of my special cupboard! It would be great if you could take him for a checkup.
