Reading Gingerbread books was a lot of fun this week. The class loved reading/ listening to The Gingerbread Man and singing along, "Run run as fast as you can. You can't catch me I'm the Gingerbread Man." :) The girls LOVED The Gingerbread Girl!! And everyone loved singing along with her song, "Run run with a leap and a twirl. You can't catch me I'm the Gingerbread Girl." But the book that came out as the favorite... The Gingerbread Pirates!! (Even Ms. Godbold agreed it was the coolest book ever!!) Ask your child about the books, have them sequence the events for you. :)
All week we reviewed what compare and contrasted meant. The class did great remembering that COMPARE was to tell how they were the same and CONTRAST was to tell how they were different. On Friday we chose to books of the books to compare and contrast and I introduced the class to the Venn Diagram. Here is a picture of the comparison of the two books: The Gingerbread Girl and The Gingerbread Pirates . :)
