The Gingerbread Man
As part of our Literacy programme the children will be reading ‘The Gingerbread Man’. Reception spoke about the ingredients that they would need to make a recipe. The children also weighed out the ingredients to create a perfect mixture. The children used their senses to explore the smell of the ginger and cinnamon through the mixture. During snack today Reception had a gorgeous treat and ate their baked goods.
