The children enjoyed making our pasta dishes.  Two of the classes had the pasta cold with tomatoes and chickpeas and one of the classes had the pasta hot with parmesan and mozzarella cheese. We did, however, put some cheese on the cold pasta as requested by some of the children. Some of the children were very interested in the idea of eating the pasta cold like a salad. One class requested the hot pasta. While we were stirring the pasta we wrote two songs. Both of the songs were sung to the tune of “Frere A Jacques.”
