🍕 Fun Friday in HHS Life Skills!🍕

For our first cooking activity of the school year, our students did a wonderful job making their very own pizzas! 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳 They practiced following a recipe, gathering ingredients, measuring, assembling, and cooking their pizzas—all while building important independent living skills.

After enjoying their delicious creations, the students completed a quiz reviewing the recipe, ingredients, and steps they followed. They worked hard and did an amazing job!

What a fun and successful way to kick off our cooking activities for the year! 🍕❤️💙
