After hearing the story, the kindergarten students drew a picture of their favorite foods and either wrote about it or dictated a sentence to a teacher. The majority of the children drew either pizza or spaghetti. This is a sample of their work.

My mom makes pizza. It is good because it has lots of pepperoni.
