Gingerbread Men Part 2

This week was our last week of school! We made our christmas cards and gifts for our parents! 

We made gingerbread houses out of graham crackers and icing and lots of candy. Brooke squished hers and then she ate it all up! 

We did gingerbread math centres again this week but different ones! We also wrote our gingerbread catch phrases...

Run, Run, I have a Van
You can't catch me I'm the gingerbread Man! 
- Brooke

Run, Run, My name is Pat,
You can't catch me I'm the gingerbread cat!
- Emery 

Run, Run, I have a hat
You can't catch me I'm the gingerbread cat! 
- Mahina

Skip, Skip, Leap and Twirl,
You can't catch me I'm the gingerbread girl!
- Hayley

Today, we had a pajama board game party! We played Don't Wake Daddy, Battleship, Tell Tale, Connect 4, Sorry, Guess Who, Yahtzee Jr, Busy town and so much more! We also had snacks for our party! Then we watched How the Grinch Stole Christmas (the Dr. Seuss cartoon one)! 

In January, we have a new boy starting in our class named Cody! He is in grade 2! 

Have a safe and happy holidays! 
annnd.. a happy new year!!!

GINGERBREAD HOUSES

PAJAMA GAME BOARD PARTY!

Gingerbread Week = Part 1

This week we used the Elf Yourself App! You take pictures of your face and other peoples faces, and then you can move them into an elf's face and then you press a button that says "lets dance" and then you see all of the people in elf costumes dancing!! It was so fun and funny!!

This week we are working on gingerbread centres! There is measuring ones, there is games, there is lots of adding and patterning. You can decorate your gingerbread booklet too. 

We read some books about gingerbread men and we wrote what our life would be like if we were a gingerbread man... For example...

• We would life in gingerbread houses!
• We would eat lots of candy!!
• The best part of being a gingerbread person is that you would have lots of candy and you can do whatever you want and there are no rules! 
• The hardest part of being a gingerbread person is being on the floor and getting crushed and people would try to eat you!!! 

This afternoon we are baking fresh gingerbread people. Then we are going to put candy and icing on them. And we can't wait to EAT THEM!! 

Next week we will be doing MORE gingerbread fun like...

• Gingerbread houses
• New math centres
• Readers Theatre
• More gingerbread art! 

It's going to be so fun! We only have 5 days left of classes until Christmas break!! 

Have a great weekend!

Love,
