Yesterday DRE PreK students spent time reading different versions of The Gingerbread Man, including The Gingerbread Man: Loose In The School. To their surprise, their classroom gingerbread man went missing. Students worked hard to create missing flyers, then searched the school to find him, meeting various staff along the way. From Nurse Flack, who had bandaged him up, to Ms. Megan and Ms. Miller in the office, and several other teachers along the way. Just like in the story, he was ultimately found hanging out with the principal. Dr. Archer even shared a fun video of him spinning in the office chair as the character in the book had done. It was so much fun to bring this story to life!
