Ciao Italy!! Cut, knead and roll to make pizza!

Ciao! Mamma mia! Little Cookhouse took the children across the continents to learn about the flag, foods & icons of ITALY! 你好!我们今天带这小朋友们到意大利学习关于这国家的旗帜,食品和代表性建筑!

And there is no better way to learn about a country, than through food… that’s right, PIZZA! In the 3rd class of our 5-class series, our little chefs were reintroduced to knife skills (from lesson 1), plus learn about the skills of kneading and rolling. It’s probably one of the most tiring class for the little chefs. 要了解一个国家,没有比通过认识一个国家的食物更好的方法了…是的,就是比萨饼!在我们的第三堂课程中 (总共五堂课,梯级式学习方式),我们把第一堂所学习的正确握刀和切食物的方法再次引入今天的课程,同时也增加了更多的技能,如揉、捏等。技能之多,这应该是小厨师们最累的一堂课了。

But looking at the final product, the children’s efforts are certainly well rewarded!但是看着最后的成品,孩子们的努力都是值得的!

What better way to get around the waters of Italy than being on a Gondola. The children made a paper gondola while waiting for their pizza to be baked in the oven. 在意大利水乡最好的出行方式,就是在贡多拉小船上。孩子们在等待比萨饼在烤箱里烤的时候就制作了一个纸贡多拉。

To complete our journey to Italy, we learnt to play a pizza game. In this game, we took turns to spin the pizza wheel to determine which ingredient we had to put on our pizza. Each ingredient we put gets us some points. The game ends when someone spins PIZZA and we count all our points. The winner is the person who gets the most points. Aside from reinforcing the pizza theme, this little game helps the child to learn counting, and parents can ‘level up’ the counting skills required by increasing the points from single digit to double digit based on the mathematics standard of the child.
为了巩固我们的意大利学习旅程,我们也制作了一个比萨饼游给小朋友们。在这个游戏中,我们轮流旋转比萨轮,以获取食材配料放在我们的比萨饼上。每一种配料都有不同的分数。当有人旋转到”Pizza”板块时,游戏就结束了,接着我们就计数我们的分数。胜利者是获得最多分数的人。除了巩固比萨主题,这个小游戏有助于孩子学会数数,而家长们也可以根据孩子的算术基础来增加数数的难度,比如说从单数到双数的加法。
