Pizza Party: The study is in e-book format and very simple to use. The only preparation required is to search out optional library books to read along during the week for enrichment. This already contains indepth studies in every subject in this lineup:
Day 1: Pizza—What Is It?
Day 2: The Story of Pizza
Day 3: Types of Pizza
Day 4: The Science of Pizza
Day 5: Let’s Have a Pizza Party
WHO?
I used this study with my two sons, ages 6 and 8. Although, it would have been appropriate for even my 5th grader since I learned so much myself!
HOW?
Again, we went at this with just the unit provided. We live in a small town and a search of the library yielded very limited results for us. We learned so much just doing the study alone with none of the read-along type extras. It was more than enough! I find in doing these DNG units that I don't really need extras. Amanda has done all of that for me and that's the simple beauty of these studies.
THE VERDICT
We are pizza lovers here, in the truest sense. If pizza hasn't made it onto the menu in the last few weeks, I'll know about it soon!! Every child here participates on pizza night. We do all ours homemade, so my crew knew exactly what was going on with this one-- some delicious FUN!!! The Download 'N' Go provided all that I needed to inspire more than just my children's taste buds when it comes to all things "pizza"! The study of Italy was their favorite part, aside from the food, of course. My children were quite interested in the city of Venice and the famous Italians we studied. As the teacher,it is such a pleasant experience to see your children learning and not have to jump through hoops to make it happen. It's all right there for you-- outlined, organized, clickable bliss!

I love the "love of learning" approach to learning...hee, hee! We have not done a DNG yet, but I am planning Dolphins now. We too are pizza lovers, however it is mostly FROZEN...ahhh! I did just recently make a home made shaved asparagus pizza (dough and all) and it was delicious!! Doing this unit could possibly eliminate frozen pizzas forever!:D Me and my five would love to do this unit.
