Today, we are learning about the benefits of keeping our teeth clean (sometimes called oral health or teeth hygiene) and what can happen if we don't. Let's just say our teeth could be in a 'hole' lot of trouble! Read the text carefully and choose the level of questions you would like to answer. Please write in full sentences. For example:
Question: What is the name of the country where Paris is found?
Answer: The name of the country where Paris is found is France.
Look at the underlined words. These are all the words I have recycled from the question to help me write my answer. I have only actually added one new word. Genius!
