7   Brush your teeth 2 times a day for 2 minutes.  Floss your teeth daily.  Use toothpaste with fluoride in it to strengthen teeth.  See the dentist 2 times a year.  Eat carbohydrates (sugars and starches) with a meal.  If you can't brush your teeth after eating, rinse your mouth with water or mouthwash, or chew sugarless gum.  Don't eat sugary foods between meals.  If you snack, eat non-sugary foods, such as cheese, popcorn, raw veggies, or yogurt. General Recommendations for Oral care

8   Take a plastic bag and place some beads in it. Label the bag with variable name.  Go set up your system in Room 1 B UV beads

9   Seek shade Play is safe in the shade  whenever possible and avoid midday  sun. UV rays are especially strong  between 10 AM and 4 PM.  Cover up Make your own shade with a widebrimmed  hat and long-sleeved shirts and long  pants such as blue jeans. Baseball caps and  visors shade the face but leave the neck,  lower face, and ears exposed. A broad-brimmed  hat can help prevent cancer in those areas. Sun Smart steps

10   Asymmetrical –shape  Border-irregular border  Color—2 or more colors  Diameter—gets larger than a pencil eraser  Evolving—Changes over time ABCDE’s of melanoma

11   In A, there is a dominant mole pattern with slight  variation in size. The “ugly duckling” is clearly darker  and larger than all other moles.  In B, there are two main patterns, one of large moles  and other of smaller, darker moles. The “ugly ducklin” is  small but lacks pigmentation/color.  In C, there is only one lesion on the back. If this  lesion is changing, causing a problem, or deemed unusual or atypical, see a dermatologist and have this checked out. Ugly Duckling

12   Wear sunglasses Protect your eyes with UVblocking  sunglasses. Look for a tag that says  the lenses block 99% or more of UV radiation.  Learn not to burn! Just one blistering  sunburn when you’re a child or teen more than  doubles your risk of developing melanoma (the  deadliest form of skin cancer) later in life.  Using sun protection every day may be the  smartest thing you can do for yourself

13   Use sunscreen every day UV rays are strongest  during summer, but they can cause damage yearround.  Use 2 tablespoons of a broad-spectrum  (UVA/UVB) sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or higher  every day - in every season - no matter what  your skin color. For extended outdoor activity,  use a water-resistant, broad-spectrum sunscreen  with an SPF of 30 or higher. Be sure to reapply every 2 hours or after swimming or sweating. Sun Smart
