My Project

In first grade we explore literacy through a fun gingerbread unit. We compare and contrast main ideas, characters, settings and more! Currently, all of our books are online on youtube or epic. I would love to have hard copies of these books so I can read them to my students and allow them to use the books themselves. Our students are always more engaged when we are sharing the stories with them in our voices. I look forward to introducing many of our students to the exciting adventure of the gingerbread man! Thank you again for the help towards this project.
