Last week, we had quite an adventure with our Gingerbread Man friends! After reading several versions of the classic tale, we made our very own tasty cookies. Mrs. Bradshaw took the cookies home to bake them in her oven on Wednesday night. She watched them very carefully to make sure they didn't escape from the oven. Even Macey, the dog, kept a close eye on those sneaky little guys!
On Thursday, Mrs. Bradshaw brought the cookies back to school. She showed them to the class first thing in the morning, but when we went to get them to decorate, THEY WERE GONE! We chased them all over the school building, following the clues they left for us along the way. We finally found them back in the classroom, after they visited many different places throughout our school.

Ahh! We found them back in our classroom!
We're so relieved to have found them!
We thought they were gone forever!
Time for decorating!
We really loved our Gingerbread Man unit!
