Studying the mouth and teeth is fascinating and crucial due to their essential roles in health and well-being. Integral to digestion and speech, they impact nutrition and communication. Research spans dentistry and microbiology, offering insights into preventing and treating dental diseases, the link between oral and systemic health, and the oral microbiome’s role. Understanding oral health enhances disease prevention, treatment, and quality of life through improved health practices and dental care innovations. Let’s engage with an excellent teaching resource on that topic! The research project template provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. It is an project template with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. It gives a rich and supportive framework that can be tweaked as needed for students to support differentiation. Each research project template includes space for a one paragraph summary (that may or may not link to the 2 page science article also available on this topic). Students should produce a mathematical connection, an engineering / technology connection, 2 interesting facts / stats. Further there are 5 glossary terms they should fill in with their own words and 3 thought provoking questions (ie: critical thinking questions) they must answer. Finally, each template has 3 alternative thought provoking questions for younger students and 3 other alternative harder questions to extend high flying or older students. Giving you a total of 9 possible thought provoking questions that could be used with students to enhance their research and critical thinking. The template is some of my best work and I am proud to share it with you. The science article provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons.

Imagine handing your class a vibrant, ready-to-go mouth-and-teeth science bundle that does the heavy lifting for you: it starts with an engaging reading-comprehension passage (paired with informative questions) that hits literacy standards while sneaking in core biology, then pivots to a plug-and-play research-project template that turns every student into a mini-scientist investigating topics from fluoride chemistry to the microbiome; layer in a critical-thinking framework that walks them through claim-evidence-reasoning so they can separate solid science from dental folklore; and finish with two crowd-pleasing activities - one set of 10 strange-but-true facts that make jaws drop (did you know enamel can survive a house fire?) and a fast-paced Two Truths and a Lie game that doubles as an instant formative check. So… The result? Higher engagement, seamless cross-curricular coverage (ELA, STEM, and health), authentic research practice, and students who leave your room not just knowing what a cavity is but why everyday habits matter - sparking lifelong oral-health awareness while you effortlessly meet standards and look like a curriculum rock star.

Combining a science reading passage with questions, a research project template (webquest), and a critical thinking framework with 4 levels of supportive scaffold creates a multifaceted learning bundle that significantly benefits students studying mouth & teeth. The reading passage provides a solid base of fundamental concepts and vocabulary, prompting students to actively engage with the material through targeted questions that enhance comprehension and retention. The mouth & teeth research project template guides learners in exploring real-world applications and current data related to mouth & teeth, fostering independent inquiry and practical understanding of how our teeth can be cleaned or decay from bacteria over time. Finally, the structured mouth & teeth critical thinking framework gradually builds students’ analytical and evaluative skills, offering step-by-step support that transforms basic knowledge into deeper insights. Together, these three resources empower students to make connections between scientific theory and everyday health and hygiene related science, promoting a more robust and lasting grasp of how mouth & teeth relate to our body and hygiene.
