Gingerbread Man Science Experiment

We have been busy reading different versions of the Gingerbread Man and comparing and contrasting them. We've also made, chased and ate a Gingerbread Man cookie. Yesterday, we did our first science experiment, created by Mrs. Kaeter, that had to do with a Gingerbread Man cookie. The kids had to create a hypothesis on what they thought would happen if the cookie would cross the river. After a real cookie was put in a tub of water and taking some time to listen to another Gingerbread Man story, they got to see what happened to the cookie! It was pretty gross!

 Putting the cookie in the 'river' and checking it out to draw it on our papers.

 Here is what we had to fill out...

 Gross!!!

 Eating a cookie for a bonus snack!
