Third Grade Cooks and Dines on Red Red

Can't imagine a better way to celebrate PBA completion (and reviewing plant parts) then preparing and feasting on a West African stew of black-eyed peas (cowpeas) with yucca and plantanos.  


































                                                                                  

















Thanks to Third Grade Educators Alex, Sally, Claudia, Julie, and Katherine for Photos.
And to Johanna for being the founder of the feast.
