| Description: |
Students will create their own pizza using choices of toppings. They will be able to "order" their creation from the internet and see a digitalized version of their pizza. They will use their order to calculate the area of various size pizzas, determine the "better buy", & cost per topping. Students will also have to use research skills to answer questions pertaining to the Internet Pizza Server Home Page.

Students are asked to investigate A4 paper. This nifty activity can involve ratio, quadratic equations, linear graphs, length, mass and area. You can't ask for much more than that! It can be used from grade 4 to grade 11. One of my favourites.
