October is National Dental Hygiene Month! 5 tips to make brushing and flossing fun! Let kids pick out their favorite soft bristle toothbrush. Popular toothbrush companies make brushes with medium and firm bristles, so read carefully to avoid those! Toothpaste comes in many fun colors and flavors. Check the ingredient list for fluoride, hydroxyapatite or both to ensure it's designed to harden tooth enamel. Using a toothbrush timer ensures they brush for 2 full minutes, plus timers come in many shapes, sizes, colors and some even have a suction cup on them. Floss picks come in a variety of colors, sizes, disposable, reusable, silicone, plastic and biodegradable. Kids love being independent so floss picks are the easy answer. There are many great books, videos and songs that make learning about teeth, toothbrushing, flossing and getting their teeth cleaned by a dental hygienist fun. Check online or your local library. Bridging Brighter Smiles provides preventive dental services to students inside the schools so there is no lost time from work or commuting for families. To learn more about Bridging Brighter Smiles, please visit bbsmiles.org To enroll your student, go to https://enrollment.bbsmiles.org/

In the first Social Studies unit in 5th grade, students learn about Early Exploration and its effect on the world and societies. To wrap up our unit, students shared their learning by presenting a poster and speech at the annual 5th grade Wax Museum. Students chose an early explorer, conducted research about that person, and then designed a costume. Guests walked around and waved at the wax explorer to activate them. The explorer then did a little bio. So much fun and informative! #VanguardPride

A huge shout-out to the Mazomanie Fire Department, Dane County District One EMS, and the Dane County Police Department for putting on their first ever Public Safety Day.
