Kindergarten has been reading different versions of the Gingerbread Man their literature unit. They used volume measurement to make gingerbread cookie dough. Then, for a STEM project, they used the cookies to see if they could create a raft to help the gingerbread person escape the sneaky fox. Three groups were successful in getting their rafts to float!
Ms. Klein helped the scholars measure all the ingredients (listed on the board) to make the cookie dough.
Working in teams on Wear Your Pajamas to School Day, the scholars engineered rafts.
Some of the rafts floated and kept the gingerbread person safe and dry...
... and other rafts didn't make it. A great lesson!
