Lebkuchenhaus!

Nächste Woche bauen wir Lebkuchenhäuser!  Heute wählst du einen Märchenort aus. Wo findet dein Märchen statt? Next week we will make gingerbread structures. These will be based on the setting of your own fairy tale, which you will write over break. Your gingerbread house will be a version of the place your fairy tale takes place.  You can build your house alone or pair up with someone and choose one idea.
Dein Märchenort könnte folgendes sein: ein Hexenhaus, ein Stiefel, ein Wald, ein Schloβ, eine Burg, ein Brunnen, ein Stadtplatz.......

Before leaving class today, you must:
-Choose your fairy tale setting
-Choose a buddy to work with or decide to work alone
-Decide if you are going to bake the pieces (delegate this task), if you will bring graham crackers (delegate this task), or if you will bring candy / decorations

-I will make the icing but you may also bring your own!
