Gingerbread man week!

 We have read 4 versions so far of the Gingerbread man. We made a book and are writing a summary of each story. the kids look forward to comparing and contrasting each story.

 Making our book of summaries.

 What would have happened if the gingerbread man would have jumped in the river to escape all the people that were after him to eat him? Why did he jump onto the fox's or the coyote's tail, back and finally his nose? Our quest was to find out today so we did a science experiment. Everyone stated their hypothesis and drew a picture of what they thought was going to happen. Next, we placed a gingerbread cookie in water and observed. 20 minutes passed and we drew our observations, an hour passed and we drew again. Finally, we made our conclusion, the G.M. would have crumbled in the water SO he HAD to jump onto the fox's back.


 Friends forever. Hailey and Miguel.
