Year 2: DT

March 25, 2022

Over the past four weeks, the children have been learning about what a balanced meal contains and discussing whether a pizza is a healthy meal. We looked at the different food types and ensured that our pizza had at least one ingredient from each section including carbohydrates, fruit and vegetables, protein and dairy. 

The children tasted and selected a pizza base from a variety of choices and selected their toppings following a successful and delicious taste test! They then designed their pizza making justifications for their options. This week, the day finally arrived for the children to don their chef's hats and aprons and get to work spreading, chopping and placing their toppings on their pizza. They were baked in the oven and delivered in pizza boxes.

With Italian music playing, the children enjoyed the feast. Finally, they had to evaluate their design and discuss what they would improve or change next time. 

It was a wonderful morning in Year 2! Magnifico!
