Gingerbread House Making
1L wrapped up an amazingly fun and festive unit on the folktale of the Gingerbread Man this week.
We retold the story from various cultures and celebrated our learning by writing our own gingerbread stories and making our own Gingerbread House to catch those tricky little cookies!
Reminder: Tomorrow we will host a reading of the Polar Express, with a secret surprise for the students of hot coco! Shhh! They don't know yet! Remember to pack a "special healthy snack" to enjoy!
Thank you so much to all of our 1L families who came in today and donated materials for our activity. I couldn't do it without you! Thank you for the generous holiday gift and books for our classroom as well. Students will enjoy them for years to come! I am very blessed to spend my days with your students. Being a teacher is the absolute best and this year I am especially thankful for our little family of first graders. They inspire me to push my teaching to new heights and the gifts that they share with our community each day bring me so much joy! I wish you all a very happy and restful break.
Love,
Mrs. L
