Let the children learn Chinese by making their own bread, and learn mathematics by making pizza. The Chinese language class in your impression is about students' vocabulary, word making, and text. Wenshan Elementary School's cross-disciplinary group of teachers extended the lesson from the Chinese language textbook "Mr. Squirrel's Bread" to allow children to actually knead dough, ferment it, and bake bread in a kiln. , the group shared the club face, learned about different colors of ingredients, arranged the plate, and used the baked pizza to discuss mathematical fractions. The children all felt that it was rare to have such a course experience, which was very interesting and fun. When faced with professors and principals observing the class, the children behaved gracefully and clearly in the actual operation process, which amazed the teachers who observed the class.

Principal Jiang Caifeng said that she and visual arts teacher Wang Yixin guided the children to understand color science and food aesthetics, which was of great help to the children in today's practical course. Today's gourmet DIY course invites professional pizza chefs and two teachers, Zhang Xiufeng and Xiong Naiyan, to work together to combine delicious food with delicious colors, flavors and flavors.
