Ninth-Grade History Students Celebrate the End of the Research Process with Tea and Cookies

Ninth grade history students celebrated the culmination of their months-long research project — “The Way They Lived Then”: an exploration of material culture and its significance — with tea and cookies in the Teaching Kitchen. The project also was a nod to historical revolutions in the Atlantic world, such as the Boston Tea Party.
Under the deft hand of Chef Charlie Stewert, students prepared Earl Grey cookies and drank a homebrewed chai while considering how the tea and spice trade operated within an increasingly interconnected global economy in the early modern and modern world. It was a delicious and fitting end to an engaging research process.
