Run, Run, As Fast As You Can

The final week of school before Christmas break was fun, fun, fun!!. We read and compared several different versions of the classic Gingerbread Man story. The Hounds worked hard preparing for their Gingerbread Man Readers Theater. This was the first time we tried a Readers Theater (students read the lines to a story written in play format) and we were blown away by how good they did. On Friday of that week, we made a giant Gingerbread Man cookie. After decorating it, the kids went out to play. While they were gone, the Gingerbread Man ran away. We had to following clues all over the school until we finally found him back in our room!! The Hounds also worked in groups to create story maps and retell one version of the story. It was a busy week and I didn't get pictures of many of the activities. We hope you enjoy a glimpse at our fun week.
