Ms. Fein's Class Plants in the Salsa Garden

On April 15 Mrs. Fein's students finished planting in the Salsa Garden. During the lesson we discussed the ingredients in salsa-tomatoes, onions, cilantro, jalapeno peppers and garlic. We're growing all of these.  We also discussed the different types of salsa that we'd be tasting today with tortilla chips-salsa rojo, salsa verde and mango peach salsa. The children should know that salsa means sauce, rojo means red and verde means green. The children also watered the seeds and seedlings, planted some seeds in trays and checked out the worm bin.

When the children are in 3rd grade they'll make salsa with ingredients that we've planted.
