In the classroom this week we read Dan Yaccarino’s book All the Way to America: The Story of a Big Italian Family and a Little Shovel. His story covers what values have stayed the same over multiple generations in his family and also how their lives (and names!) have changed.
In the kitchen we made risi e bisi, a true celebration of springtime with loads of sugar snap peas, English peas, pea shoots, and fresh herbs. The optional Parmigiano Reggiano for shaving on top was a very popular finishing touch.
