Saving the best for last!

This week marked the last cooking lab for the sixth grade students. Their cheese pizzas were a huge success! The sixth grade students worked very well together to complete their Cheese Pizza lab. The students did a great job making the dough and assembling the pizzas on the first day of the lab. On day two of the lab they baked and ate their pizza. The sixth graders did a commendable job consuming pizza as well.

The students also completed a Nutrition Facts' Label activity this week. They worked with a partner to compare nutrition facts from cereal boxes; determining the cereal with the best nutritious value. They completed their comparisons on a Venn diagram and then used the information to create a new cereal. The students were very creative in designing the covers, selecting names, listing ingredients and nutrients for their new cereal boxes. Nice work!

Enjoy your long weekend.

Sincerely,

Mrs. J. Bretl
