The Gingerbread Man!

Today was the day! We started learning about the gingerbread man...how after he was baked, he ran out of the oven and all around until he was eaten by a fox! This morning, we made some giant gingerbread cookies and let the students decorate them. We dropped them off with our cook, Ms. Deb, for baking and when we went to pick them up, she said he had run away! He left a note saying that he ran to the gym...so we went to the gym. We found another note that said he ran to the office...so we went to the office. He left another note that said he ran to music...so we went to music. He left another note that said he went to the library...so we went to the library. He left another note that said he went to 4th grade and then 1st grade...so we headed there and found one last note that said he ran to Mrs. Heuer's room! When we got to the room, the door was locked but after opening it up...we found him! He was delicious! We ate him for snack!

 Taking turns to mix the dough...

The big guy before he's decorated...

 Decorating away...

 Looks yummy, right?

Dropping off the cookies to Ms. Deb in the kitchen!

 Picking up the cookie and finding that they had run away!

 Reading the note found in the gym...

 Stopping to see if Mrs. Stifter found him...

 Next stop...music...no luck!

 Looking in the library...

 Checking with the 4th graders...

 Checking with 1st grade...

Getting ready to catch him if he runs out of Mrs. Heuer's classroom!

Slowly opening the door...

 We found them!
