Students will create their own paper for a story based on Jan Brett's Gingerbread Baby.
Materials: Plan: - Students will tear up scrap paper into tiny pieces and place in a blender with water.
- Blend the paper and water until it is a milky white shade.
- Scoop the pulp out of the blender and remove the excess water by pressing through a screen.
- Press the mixture into a cookie mold or cut with a cookie cutter. Let it dry for several days.
- Now you have new paper shaped like the gingerbread ready for a writing activity!
- Let the children decorate one side, and write about the story on the back.
Comments:
I love to go camping around Michigan. Even though I've lived here my whole life there is so much left to see.
