Gingerbread Fun!


Christmas is right around the corner, and we began celebrating early in our class!

This week was filled with lots of gingerbread and Christmas fun! We had fun reading about and talking about gingerbread men this week as we studied the letter G! We made our very own paper plate gingerbread men, counted with gingerbread men, and read several fun books (The Gingerbread Bear and Gingerbread Man Loose in the School). We also had fun mixing our very own gingerbread man cookies to try! What a yummy snack (in addition to getting to watch our own popcorn pop thanks to one of our sweet friends bringing in their popcorn popper)!

In addition to reading the story of Jesus birth this week, we also discussed how—unlike our cookie cutter gingerbread men—God  made us each very different and special (like no other person in the world). Mrs. Nicole and I love being able to share with everyone in our class how much Jesus loves them... Enough to come to Earth and be born as a baby for them. We pray you will spend time celebrating that with your families this season!

As we looked at our own classroom tree this week, we also had fun talking about Christmas tree lights and Christmas decorations. Another exciting part of our week was working on our surprise “Christmas light” gift for our grandparents. We look forward to having all of our grandparents visit us next week!

Counting with gingerbread men buttons!






Such sweet smiles!


Which part of the gingerbread man
did you eat first?



We loved trying out our gingerbread cookies!



Someone is very fast on the new bikes! 
Superman to the rescue!

This sweet friend's first time on a tricycle!

Who can keep from smiling
with these smiles around?

This sweet girl worked so hard on
finding the letters on her tree!


A fireman showed up!




We practiced writing letters in
cinnamon sugar this year!







The popcorn was a hit!

Waiting for our popcorn!


 




Writing in cinnamon sugar is quite fun!



Our class is full of scientists!
We enjoyed reading our Christmas
books in the library!





Doing so great writing her letters!
