We have focussed this week on dentists and looked at how to keep our teeth healthy. We used an apple to represent our teeth piercing holes in it to show what could happen to the enamel if we didn’t brush our teeth. The children made some great predictions about what could happen to the apple with the holes in it. We then had a go at brushing some teeth clean in the classroom. ### Teeth class 1 [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/teeth-class-1/IMG_7816.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/teeth-class-1/IMG_7816.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/teeth-class-1/IMG_7822.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/teeth-class-1/IMG_7822.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/teeth-class-1/IMG_7760.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/teeth-class-1/IMG_7760.jpeg) [ Suspense writing](https://howard.staffs.sch.uk/blog/2026-09-21-13-34-suspense-writing) [Wanted! ](https://howard.staffs.sch.uk/blog/2026-09-25-19-28-wanted) ![The Howard Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/logo/Howard-footer-Logo.png) ### The Howard Primary School The Square Elford Tamworth B79 9DB 01827 383292 - [Term Dates](http://howard-primary-school.schudio.com/termdates) © Copyright 2019–2026 The Howard Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://howard.staffs.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
