We've read many books about gingerbread people and compared their stories. We are learning about setting, titles, author and illustrators, and characters. We are predicting the new gingerbread endings. We also made gingerbread creatures (not to eat) to decorate and take home. It was quite the experience having twenty-four five year olds mix up a bowl of cinnamon and applesauce to create the dough. Here is what it looked like before they went into the oven...
This morning when I came in to check our gingerbread buddies, they were missing! We couldn't find them anywhere! They left some clues though and we went in search of them.
We will keep reading more books to get some more ideas of how to catch the sneaky gingerbread critters. Hopefully they will be back in time for break!
