Throughout the school year we will be learning about different aspects of agriculture and how it is important to us! This week they worked in groups to unlock boxes by solving riddles that had to do with agriculture! We learned in order to make pizza we depend on farmers to supply us with the products we need to make pizza, sell pizza, and distribute pizza.
