G for Gingerbread

Last week our Letter of the Week was 'Gg', so in our cooking session we decided to make Gingerbread Men. We practised lots of great skills - reading, counting, using our visuals to communicate, taking turns, and using our senses and so much more!

First we had to read the recipe.

Then Aiyden helped to cream the butter and sugar

Kereama added the flour

William added some ginger

 

Mixing time

Tyler had a turn at mixing too

William used the rolling pin to roll the dough out flat

We pushed the cutter down to make a man

Aiyden's turn to cut one out

Once they had cooked and cooled it was time to decorate!

Tyler told us that he LIKED the gingerbread men - great work

Kereama chose red icing for his man

Aiyden chose 'like' as well.

I wonder what we will make this week for the letter 'H'......
