Little Davis's Pizzeria


We've had a lot of fun rowing Little Nino's Pizzeria this week, especially knowing that we'd be making our own pizza for our final lesson. Have you ever thought about all the lessons to be learned from eating pizza? No, I'm not talking about the lesson I'm sure we've all had to learn a few times when indulging in Pizza, namely, overeating leads to guilt and weight gain. Instead, I'm talking about nutrition, food groups, digestion, managerial skills required to run a pizza business, measurements, fractions. We even learned about homonyms, such as need and knead. The list really could go on and on and we covered most of that and more in our short daily lessons, all the while having fun together!

And to top it all off, the kids did an excellent job making the pizza. It was absolutely delicious!! It looked home-made and rustic, which is just two of the things that give homemade foods so much charm! They all helped rolling out the dough for the crust. Kristen was in charge of the Spinach Garlic Mushroom Pizza (my favorite), and the boys shared the responsibility of putting together the Canadian Bacon and Pineapple Pizza.
