Gingerbread decorating

We ended our gingerbread unit today, and what better way to celebrate then with lots and lots of sugar and icing! Over the past few weeks, we have read many different versions of the Gingerbread Man--from the classic to contemporary stories, such as The Gingerbread Girl Goes Animal Crackers.  The girls have used Venn diagrams to compare the different stories and have also sequenced some of the stories as well.  It was a fun unit and decorating the gingerbread people was a great way to to culminate the unit and head into winter break.
