Pizza Pizza!

We have been learning about Nutrition and the four food groups in our classroom.  Today we made our own pizzas (because pizza can fit into all four food groups).  A big thank you to Upper Crust Bakery in Selkirk who generously donated the pizza dough.  Another huge thank you to Mrs. Cook and Mrs. Yourchenko who helped us make our pizzas.  The pizzas were delicious!
