“Taking Care of Teeth” (Lesson 3.33) is a small-group lesson from the Grow Your PALS Program Guide (National FFA Mentoring Program) on the importance of properly brushing and flossing teeth. Students explore good oral hygiene practices and the consequences of poor oral hygiene through discussion, a tooth-shaped activity sheet, and a Karaoke e-Moment in which they rewrite a familiar song about oral hygiene.
