About

Help Pepper the red panda make a mushroom pizza for her friend Milo the mouse on a rainy morning! In this narrated K-2 speech and language lesson, children learn pizza words with flip cards, answer who, why and where questions about a short picture story, put Pepper's four pizza-making steps in order, tell how Milo feels from a clue, match describing words (hot, stretchy, crunchy), choose the polite way to ask and to say thank you, and finish by catching pizza toppings in a falling-items game. Every direction is read aloud, every answer choice has its own speaker, and wrong answers get a gentle spoken hint.
