Help Key Stage 1 science pupils discover how the shape of an object can be changed with pushing, pulling, stretching and kneading, with this everyday example that can be practised in class.
Chef Eric demonstrates how he makes pizzas with dough, as he pushes and pulls it to make different shapes. This lesson starter gives primary pupils a real-life context, showing the different forces a chef uses when making dough.
After Eric kneads the dough for a while and stretches it, he puts it onto a baking dish. Toppings are then added and the pizza is put into the oven.
