The Gingerbread Man Activity Pack

The Gingerbread Man is one of those books that students have fun with. The repetitive pattern and pictures allow students to successfully read the story, especially the easier versions. Rather than just rushing through this book and only reading it once, I really like to spend time with it. This includes reading different versions of the story. It might also include the reader's theater, listening to the story on CD, and watching the story on YouTube.

I also like to provide students with different activities that work well and/or correspond to the theme of the book. I do this by using story resource packets that I have available at my TpT Store.

My Gingerbread Man Activity Pack includes a student version of the Gingerbread Man story in both color and black and white. This is used after students have heard the story a few times. After reading the student version of the story students cut the strips apart and put the story back together again. Using the familiar story is a fun way for students to practice reading.
The set also includes a comprehension page, a word search, and cards to make retell puppet sticks.


My Gingerbread Man Math Practice Pages
includes 25 pages of math
practice that is geared towards kindergarten and first grade students, but may serve as a review for other grades. It includes pages for missing numbers, patterns, graphing, shapes, addition, subtraction, word problems, place value, less than/greater than, and time.



I have included the links to these resources below in case you are interested. I have also included my Gingerbread Man video and the link if you want to actually view it on YouTube.








This video is available as a PowerPoint as well.
