[THEME SONG BEGINS]

>>RACHEL: Good morning Chompions! It’s time for Chompers, your morning and night tooth brushing show. 

Start brushing on the top of your mouth. Pick a side, and brush the inside, outside, and chewing side of each tooth. 

>> KIDS: 3-2-1 Brush!

[THEME SONG ENDS]

>>RACHEL: It’s Everybody Week, and today we’ve got some True or False for you!

I’ll give you a fact about disability, and if you think it’s true…

[DING] 

>>RACHEL: give a thumbs up! False…

[BUZZER]

>>RACHEL: -thumbs down. . 

Ready for your first one? 

No two people are the same. 

[MUSIC BEGINS]

>>RACHEL: So, is this true or false? Are no two people are the same?

The answer is, True! 

[DING]

Switch your brushing to the other side of the top of your mouth… 

[SWITCH BELL]  

>>RACHEL: -and brush your front teeth too. 

Everyone is different, but sometimes those differences are easier to see than others. People might notice right away if I walk with crutches, but everyone has SOMETHING that makes them different. Having a disability is just ONE part of what makes someone who they are. Everyone is lots of other things too! I might also be funny, or smart, or blonde, or thoughtful, or brave, or short, or silly, or…

[SWITCH BELL]

>>RACHEL: Switch your brushing to the bottom of your mouth, but don’t brush too hard.

[MUSIC ENDS]

>>RACHEL: Ready for your next true or false? Okay. Here it is. 

Over 1 BILLION people have some type of disability. 

[MUSIC BEGINS]

>>RACHEL: So, is this true, or false? Shout it out!

True! 

[DING]

>>RACHEL: Switch your brushing to the other side of the bottom of your mouth…

[SWITCH BELL]

>>RACHEL: -and don’t forget the molars in the way back.

Over 1 billion people have some kind of disability. That makes having a disability more common than having blue eyes! 

There’s a good chance you or someone you know might have a disability, or that you’ll meet someone who does. It is a very common thing! It’s also common for people to have more than one type of disability.
