Activities accomplished:
On January 23, 2007 in partnership with the UNC School of Public Health, Kelly Haupt and
Research Associate Leslie Zeldin conducted a 3 hour session with teachers and staff from the
Guilford Child Development Early Head Start Program. The session included information
requested by teachers about early childhood oral health, as well as training on the newly
developed oral health curriculum. Teachers were instructed to use the curriculum in their
classrooms during February, March, and April, and provide feedback in May.
On May 17, 2007 Kelly Haupt, Leslie Zeldin, Bhavna Pahel (a dentist, health educator, and
current PhD student in the School of Public Health), and Valerie Hooks (GCD Oral Health
Initiative Coordinator) conducted four focus groups of teachers and staff to gather feedback on
the EHS Oral Health Curriculum. Four of the eight modules were completed as time and other
