Lesson 22
La pizzería (optional)
Warm-up: Observa y pregúntate: Ingredientes para pizza (10 minutes)
Narrative
The purpose of this warm-up is to elicit the idea that there are different quantities of toppings on each pizza, which will be useful when students create pizzas with given numbers of toppings in a later activity. While students may notice and wonder many things about these images, the number of toppings is the important discussion point. Students use more, fewer, and the same as to describe the quantities they see.
Launch
- Groups of 2
- “Jada y Diego dibujaron pizzas personales diferentes con salchichas y aceitunas” // “Jada and Diego drew different personal pizzas with sausage and olives on them.”
- Display the image.
- “¿Qué observan? ¿Qué se preguntan?” // “What do you notice? What do you wonder?”
- 1 minute: quiet think time
Activity
- “Discutan con su pareja cómo pensaron” // “Discuss your thinking with your partner.”

- Give an order sheet to each student.
- “Tomen pedidos de su propio grupo. Pueden pedir una pizza con hasta 3 tipos de ingredientes. Pueden poner hasta 10 de esos ingredientes” // “Take orders from your group. You can order a pizza with up to 3 kinds of toppings. You can have up to 10 of those toppings.”
