Gingerbread Fun

 

Every December I teach a Gingerbread Unit. It’s a wonderful theme that everyone can participate in no matter which holiday they celebrate.

This year I’ve created some fun Gingerbread resources that I’d like to share with you. Everything is low prep and easy to incorporate into your classroom centers.

Gingerbread Tic Tac Toe

This resource is free on Teachers Pay Teachers. This is a quick and fun game that your kiddos can play during an indoor recess, in pairs when they’ve completed their work, or with you as a reward for good behavior.

Gingerbread Writing

This resource is also free on Teachers Pay Teachers and differentiated based on your kiddos’ skill levels.

There are two different writing activities in this resource: a creative writing piece (If I Lived In A Gingerbread House) and a How To Piece (How To Make A Gingerbread House).

Gingerbread Hide-And-Seek

The Gingerbread Kids are on the loose! This is a fun seek-n-find game perfect for a Gingerbread Man lesson during the holidays or in conjunction with a fairytale theme.

Invite your kiddos to work alone, in pairs, or small groups as they hunt down a dozen adorable Gingerbread Kids. The game fosters visual discrimination, cooperation, and patience.

Gingerbread Kid Letter Match

Perfect for small group instruction and literacy centers. Helps aid in letter identification, cooperation skills, and sharing.

Three of my favorite Gingerbread Books by Jan Brett: She also has FREE resources for all her books.

Happy Holidays!
