Run! Run! As fast as you can!

We read many versions of the "gingerbread boy" story and compared and contrasted the various books. Students practiced retelling the story using character puppets from the tale.

A "First Bite Graph" was constructed too. Each student was given a gingerbread cookie and instructed to take just one bite. Our graph illustrates which piece students ate first (head, an arm or a leg).

We had Nick, a 2nd grader, who used to be in Mrs.Kapsner's kindergarten class come and read us GINGERBREAD FRIENDS. That was a real treat!
