How are pennies made?

I was having to do a paper for school and I had to write a question about pennies and then somehow find the answer. Well, my question was "How are pennies made?" I searched in encyclopedias and the internet and was unable to find the answer! I'm sure it was on the internet somewhere but I couldn't believe that I wasn't able to find it easily. I ended up changing my question to "What are pennies made of?" and right away found the answer. So, how DO they make pennies?
