Gingerbread House Made with LOVE!

The students had a SWEET time creating our big story to hang in the classroom.  I think the GLITTER was their favorite part!  The best part is that we get to read it over-and- over again during the month of December.  

The students can also complete a writing booklet (pictured below) by adding the candies they would like to have on their gingerbread house.

Teach~Teach As Much As You Can!

We will be working on Gingerbread Centers in the next couple of weeks.  I took some quick pictures of each center to share with you before Thanksgiving break.  (Just in case you want to spend your break making the centers ~ HE HE HE)

Guess Me If You Can
The students will look at the picture on the right and circle the correct vowel sound.  When the students finish both sides of sheet, he/she will have to put 5 of the words in order by sounding them out. 

Catching Beginning Sounds
The students will use a magnetic net to "catch"a gingerbread man and say the letter sound.  Then the student will dab/color the matching beginning sound on their recording sheet.

Gingerbread Rhymes
The students will match all the gingerbread boys and girls together.  Then the students will complete the worksheet by glueing the correct rhyming word on the gingerbread girl.

Gingerbread ABC'S
The students will put the gingerbread cookies in ABC order and write the letters on the recording sheet. 



How To Make Sure He Will Not Escape
The students will read the sentence on each page and tear that body part off of the gingerbread man.  When the student is finsihed illustrating the book he/she LOVES to read it back to the teacher.      



Sweet Patterns
The stduents complete the patterns by following the AB, ABB, AABB, ABC pattern on the candy. 

Gingerbread Addition House
The students will drop 10 Gingerbread Men onto the house.  Then the students will write how many fell on the gingerbread house and how many fell off the house.  Yes...they will all add up to 10!

"AN...FAMILY"  word search
The students will walk around the room and search for the "an" word family words on the gingerbread man.  When they find a gingerbread man they will write that word on his/her recording sheet.

You guessed it...if you would like a copy of any of the masters you see, you will have to go to my teacher website   www.luv2teachk.shutterfly.com
That is so "SWEET" of you to understand!

I am hoping to get my first "Rockstar" idea on Teachers Notebook over break.  Wish me luck!
