Making Pizza

Having seen pizza-making in action at Scoozi's restaurant and designing our own balanced pizzas, it was time to set about making them.

First, we measured out the ingredients ...

Then we mixed the ingredients together with a wooden spoon until they were all combined ... 

Then it was time to knead the dough ...

When the dough was soft and pliable we put it back into the mixing bowl, covered it with cling-film and left it outside in the heat to prove (rise) ...

 Meanwhile, it was time to prepare our toppings ...

After about 45 minutes, we were all amazed to see how the dough had risen and doubled in size ...

Now it was time to prepare our pizza-base, using what we had learned in our demonstration at Scoozi's ... 

With the base prepared, it was time to add our topping, trying to stick to our design ...

At last our pizza were ready to be cooked ...

Some of them were shaped like faces, ...

... some were patterns ...

... and some were random, ...

... but we all agreed that they tasted good!

Well done, 2W!

Pizza!

On Monday we visited Scoozi's, a restaurant specialising in pizza, to watch a pizza being made and sample their wonderful pizzas.

It was interesting watching the chefs at work and see how they get the pizza to be so thin, large and round - without using a rolling pin.

The pizza tasted wonderful and we all enjoyed our visit.

Thank you, Scoozi's. We really enjoyed our visit.

Rice Paddy Poetry

To start to understand how it feels like for a rice farmer, we trampled through some troughs that had been specially prepared for rice planting. Afterwards, we thought about sounds that we could hear and how it felt on our feet. Then we created poems.

These are some of our poems:

My Exciting Gooey Day

by Stuti

Splish, splash, splosh,

Soggy, sticky goo.

Mud on my toes

Gluey gungy mud.

Water all around

Splish, splash, splosh!

Sticky Paddyfield

by Tonnaam

Yucky mucky paddyfields

Gluey, sticky, slimy too.

Muddy, soggy, watery.

Plodding through the paddyfield.

Gummy, gurgling,

Splish, splash, splosh!

Gooey Muddy Field

by Alerik

Splodge, splash, splish,

When I put my feet in.

Yucky, soggy, muddy -

I feel it on my feet.
