The Gingerbread Man
Mrs. Schultz’ 1st grade class at Ely Elementary learned about the gingerbread man through books, drawings, and via video conference from Atlanta. The video conference included a shadow puppet show, which the students made their own gingerbread man puppet. The class also mailed to a relative, preferably out of state, a blank gingerbread man and requested they decorate it representing where they live. Some also sent a postcard back to the class along with their decorated gingerbread man, incorporating geography.
