Pizza, Pasta, Soup!

When the Green Room students started “making” pizza and pasta with play dough at the Sensory table, their teachers knew it was time to incorporate this new interest into the classroom curriculum. Throughout the upcoming weeks, the children learned everything there was to know about pizza and pasta. This eventually led the class to also incorporate soup, the artist Andy Warhol (famous for his soup paintings), author Tomie dePaola (who wrote the Strega Nona series), and to hold a food drive, collecting items to donate to local charities. Below you will find our favorite books, as well as an all-inclusive list on the topic.
