Decorating Gingerbread people

This is the banner...Mrs. F is working on glueing the gingerbread people as we finished them. I was walking around with my new 50mm lens and taking photos of the adorable kids hanging out in Room 8.





























Usually on buddy projects, the fourth graders help the first graders...then the first graders get to take the project home.


With the gingerbread people, everyone, both 4th and 1st graders, got to decorate a gingerbread person for the banner.
The fourth graders were full of ideas for their buddies...











It was definitely a fun day in Room 8... and a busy day... and a very messy day after we had cut out all the decorations!

Come see our banner hanging in the gym during our performance next Tuesday!
