Pizza: Procedure Jumble

Overview:

A jumbled pizza recipe activity where students cut and paste to put the steps, pictures, and headings in the correct order. Designed for middle years students to practise organising a recipe and understanding the sequence of a procedure.

Learning Objectives:

• Develop organisational skills by sequencing recipe steps.
• Understand the structure of a recipe, including headings, ingredients, and steps.
• Strengthen reading comprehension and procedural writing skills.

How the Activity Works:

The recipe for making pizza is jumbled, with steps, pictures, and headings mixed up. Students will cut and paste the parts of the recipe in the correct order, ensuring that the instructions flow logically from start to finish. Once the recipe is correctly sequenced, students can review the steps and discuss the process of making pizza, reinforcing their understanding of the procedure. This hands-on activity supports critical thinking and sequencing in a fun and interactive way.
