Listening intently as the students listed their daily rituals for taking care of themselves, Seren nodded and smiled in response to some of their answers. Generally speaking they had the right idea. Eating food, whether it was healthy or whether it was chocolate, though she didn't think she could eat five apples a day, that was madness. Hydrating, showering, washing hands before meals, exercising, sleeping, socialising, brushing hair and teeth.... being awesome? sure thing young Snake, being awesome is always a great way to look after yourself. Protective clothing, constant vigilance? de-stressing, medication and learning.. all very valid answers.
"Well it's good to see you all know how to take care of yourselves, we wouldn't want you wasting away now would we?"
The thing she was most pleased about in regard to the answers to her question, was that they touched on today's topic. Yay, now the fun could start.
"Now today's topic is dental hygiene." She paused to let this sink in. No doubt there would be some students that weren't yet familiar with flesh eating plants.
"Considering that dental care is important to humans, why might this also be important for plants, particularly flesh eating plants?" and just to elaborate on the question she asked, "What do they need their teeth for?"
OOC: The lesson will continue in approximately 12 hours. Please name/list ONLY ONE aspect in your answer, so that we can get some variety. Thanks.
Dental hygiene? For plants? She could only imagine how similar it was to humans though, especially since they sort of both eat meat?
The Slytherin thought for a moment, her face crumpled in concentration as she tried to make sense of her nonsensical thoughts, then she raised her hand tentatively and answered
"Well, the mouth is the primary way that they get nutrition, and if their mouth is filled with bacteria, then no matter how healthy their food is, it's still going to make them sick." Cass answered lamely, it was just like taking care of human teeth too, right?
