Brushing My Teeth

Brushing My Teeth | Companion Activity reinforces the hygiene and self-care skills taught in the life skills video through a variety of interactive exercises. Students answer yes/no and WH-questions, complete sequencing tasks, retell the video using visual supports, and practice identifying correct tooth-brushing behaviors. The resource also includes problem-solving scenarios that help students recognize common challenges, determine the size of the problem, and choose appropriate solutions. Additional activities support language development, such as categorization of hygiene items, compare/contrast of healthy and unhealthy oral care habits, and utterance expansion using action words and sequencing terms. These engaging tasks help deepen understanding and promote independence and responsibility in daily hygiene routines.
