In this unit of work, children apply their knowledge and understanding about healthy eating to design and make a pizza based on the key messages from the Eatwell Guide for healthy eating. Children begin by discussing the different ways that we eat food at home and outside the home. They conduct market research into their favourite pizzas and brainstorm what makes a good pizza. It is important that in lesson 2 they create a Margherita pizza by making bread dough and then adding tomato sauce and grated cheese, this is the basic recipe for all pizzas to which different toppings are then added (This is an example of adapting a recipe to create a new food product). In learning how to make a margherita pizza they acquire the essential skills and knowledge needed to make a pizza and this is essential when they come to designing and making their own pizza. They consolidate their understanding of the different food groups on the Eatwell Guide to healthy eating and use this knowledge to design a pizza that promotes healthy eating. They learn about pizza packaging and the invention of the pizza delivery bag by Ingrid Kosar. Having designed and made their Eatwell Pizza they become entrepreneurs and set up their own small business learning about business basics, marketing and budgeting.
