Thanks for your posters about looking after your teeth!

Today we are looking at food chains. What is a food chain? Watch this video to find out.

Your tasks:

1. Have a go at these food chain challenges in the Savannah, tundra or woodland here.

2. Create your own food chain. You can display this however you want. Be creative, you could draw them, make a paper chain or even a powerpoint!

If you fancy a challenge, choose a food chain challenge card.

3. Label your food chain with these key words:

Producer, consumer, herbivore, carnivore, omnivore, predator, prey

4. Email your fantastic food chains to me, I can't wait to see them!

Thursday 2nd April

Today we are going to be looking at tooth decay. We will learn about what it is and how to prevent it.

First, watch this video from 3 minutes 35 seconds. We would have been doing this experiment in school if we could! You can give it a go at home if your grownup says it’s ok!

Then read the information on this website about how to look after your teeth:

https://www.childrensuniversity.manchester.ac.uk/learning-activities/science/teeth-and-eating/brushing-your-teeth/

Your task today is to put all the information you have learnt into a poster to inform younger children what tooth decay is and how to look after their teeth properly. Make sure you send me a picture – I can’t wait to see them!

Wednesday 1st April

Thank you for sending me your work, I can tell that a lot of you are enjoying this science topic! Today we are going to look at different types of teeth and their functions (jobs).

I want you to watch this video and read the information on this website about different teeth. There is also a 'build the mouth' activity you can do on there (have an explore).

Use what you have read to label the picture below with either molar, premolar, canine or incisor. Have a look at your own teeth, can you see the different types? SAY CHEESE

You can print the picture off or have a go at drawing one yourself. Now, can you decide what teeth I am describing below?

These are the first teeth we grow, they have sharp edges and help us to bite into food.

Write a description like this for each of the other types

Animals have different teeth depending on their diet, think about how our teeth are different to a tigers. This video talks about different animal's teeth.

Design your own fantasy animal and think about it's diet, is it a herbivore, carnivore or omnivore? Draw your animal's teeth according to it's diet. If you do this activity I would love to see your creations, please e-mail them to me!

Well done- some of you have sent me some accurately labelled diagrams of the digestive system. Today we are going to look at the functions (jobs) of all those different parts. Click here to watch a short video about the digestive system.

Below are two tables. One contains the parts of the digestive system, the other contains the functions. Your task is to match them up correctly.

Here are some links to other websites to help you:

Monday 30th March

Today we are going to start our science work on Teeth & The Digestive System!

We will start by looking at the different parts of the digestive system. First click here to watch a short video about the digestive system.

Your task is to label the parts of the digestive system with these words: mouth, tongue, teeth, salivary glands, oesophagus, stomach, duodenum, small intestine, large intestine, gallbladder, pancreas, liver, rectum, anus.

If you have a printer you can print this image and label it. If not, have a go at sketching it. Don't worry about artistic perfection- the important thing is the labelling.
