Our Gingerbread Hunt

Run, run as fast as you can!

You can't catch me...

I'm the Gingerbread Man!

We had a blast going on our gingerbread hunt!

Arriving in our classroom, we found these crumbles, this note,

and a book about a Gingerbread Man who got loose in the school.

Off we went! 

We had to look for clues all around the school...

Ms. C's class joined us to see if we could

find our cookies together. 

Oh, it's a clue!!!

We finally found our cookies!

Those sneaky little things...they 

were in our classroom all along.

Tricky Gingerbread Men!!!

Our cookies were yummy, yummy! 

Then, we made our own gingerbread cookies.

Check out the Gingerbread Pirate!

Holidays Around The World

We learned all about different holiday celebrations

from around the world.

Here are the countries we studied:

-Mexico

-Africa

-The Netherlands

-Israel

-Germany

-Brazil

-China

-America

Check out some of the facts and see

 some of the fun activities we created during our adventure.

We made suitcases to carry around our souvenirs from

our trip.

In studying the The Netherlands, we took a look

at some real Dutch clogs.

We made a scrapbook of facts from our travels.

We made a clog just like the Dutch families.

We placed our clogs outside our classroom.

A special visitor, Sinterklass, left us a treat in our clogs,

just like he would in The Netherlands.

We even had to have a passport to travel 

all over the world!

It was so fun! Look at all of our stamps!
