Ms. Paul's third grade class at Windsor Park was surprised Wednesday when their principal interrupted class with a special announcement... they were chosen to grow a pizza garden! Fuel Pizza brought lots of vegetable pizza for all the students to try. There was some skepticism at first...
But when they saw their friends enjoying the pizza they gave it a try too! The "pyramid" pizza with a topping from every food group was a big hit. Vegetables can be delicious on pizza after all.
After the pizza party everyone was excited to start their own garden where they would grow ingredients for pizza. The field trip to Fuel Pizza in May to make pizza is sure to be an unforgettable experience. Next up, planting!
