(so much pink!)

I think I can vouch for us all when I say that we love pj day!


Pizza Halves











Before the break we were learning about halves and wholes in math. The best, well definitely fun, way to demonstrate halves and wholes is to make pizza... and we did! First, we read the books, Pizza and Pete's Pizza. Then we cut our pizza in halves. Next, we had to spread on the pizza sauce and sprinkle on the cheese. Last, we got to eat our yummy pizzas!



All you need for this super easy pizza recipe that your child can make by all by themself is: bagels (or english muffin), pizza sauce, and cheese
