#### [Teeth, Teeth, Teeth ](https://www.brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2021-11-15-15-44-25-teeth-teeth-teeth)

Today, in Science, we looked at our own teeth and then created our own scientific models using marshmallows.  Children then labelled the type of teeth and stated what the function of each.
