Pizza Making 

As part of our topic on food we wanted to know about how food is made. We researched pizzas doing a taste test to see what makes a good pizza. We also gathered data in numeracy about favourite toppings before planning and designing our own pizzas. 













After learning about instructions in literacy we were able to follow instructions to make pizza dough. We used our pizzas designs to decorate the tops of our pizzas. Everyone enjoyed learning about grating cheese and chopping up vegetables! Finally our pizzas were made and ready to be enjoyed.  Don't they look good!
