The teacher will read the prompt and scoring guide which will benefit LD and Title I students. This will also help ensure that health rather than reading ability and comprehension of written directions will be assessed. The students will complete the food pyramid that has been provided to help them plan a nutritious pizza. Then students will use a circle pattern provided by the teacher as a basis for designing and creating the assigned pizza. The teacher will provide an array of construction paper and yarn to be used to create the pizza and accurately depict the ingredients.
Several agencies provide free curricular support materials for eating nutritious and balanced meals.
Our class has been studying nutrition and eating foods from each of the five food groups each day. Today, we are going to create a food that all of you enjoy and this food represents the five food groups. You have been hired by the South Park cooking staff to create a pizza that uses ingredients from each of the five food groups. You will work on your own to create your pizza that will represent each of the food groups. After you have planned your pizza on the food pyramid that has been provided, you may use the circle pattern given to you to get started with the crust.
