Morning Starters: Autumn 2 - Teeth

Monday

Did You Know?

Have you ever used a tool to help you do a job, like scissors to cut paper? Animals use their teeth in the same way! Elephants have teeth that grind plants into smaller pieces, helping them digest food more easily. Crocodiles have sharp teeth to tear meat into bite-sized pieces, and walruses use their tusks to haul themselves out of the water and onto the ice. Teeth are amazing tools that help animals eat, survive and live in their environments.
