...Gingerbread Exchange In December, I joined with a group of teachers across the country to exchange gingerbread people. We had children from every room make gingerbread people so we could send them out to 22 different schools around the country. In addition to the gingerbread people, we were sent information about our state they arrived from. We also sent out information about our state, as well. There is a book located at the front desk for you to share stories about different states with your child. Thank you for all the stickers, bags and paper towels. Valentine’s Day and The Guitar Lady Wednesday, February 14th. Children will be decorating bags, passing out Valentine Cards and going to the big room...

...The use of archetypes in literature and movies is prominent and helps the readers and audiences to have a basic knowledge of the character backgrounds. In the Gingerbread Man story, the grandma and grandpa were lonely because they had no children and wanted to make a child out of gingerbread dough. The grandma and grandpa are categorized as caregiver and creator. They hoped to take care of the gingerbread man as their precious child, which we can see that they are associated with the caregivers’ qualities. However, the Gingerbread man turned out to be an explorer. He desired freedom and exploration of what he can do in the new world.

These students struggled academically and needed one on one attention. One particular student wanted to work at his table and not at the back table. One student needed to be remained to finish the assignment whiles the other student I kept repeating my directions. If the students finished the worksheet, they could color the gingerbread.

...Fragments are incomplete sentences. The next few examples are not sentences, but word groups that are incomplete sentences (fragments). 1. After Starbucks Coffee opened. Several local coffee shops went out of business. 2. Several young people are learning old-fashioned dances. Such as ballroom dancing for the Nutcracker ballet. 3. The woman always wears pant suits and heels to the office. Then takes off her heels and jacket by noon. 1. After Starbucks Coffee opened. This statement does not follow through and complete the thought by telling what happened after Starbucks opened. Correct the fragment by adding it to the sentence that precedes it. 2. Such as ballroom dancing for the Nutcracker ballet. This word group does not have a subject and a verb, and it does not express a complete thought. 3. Then takes off her heels and jacket by noon. This word group lacks a subject. Correct the fragment by adding the subject she to the beginning of group of words. A word group must contain a subject and a verb for it to be a complete sentence. A complete sentence will also express a complete thought and it either stands alone or could stand alone. This is also known as an independent clause. You can spot a fragment because it will not make sense by itself. A fragment is less than a sentence because it lacks a subject, lacks a verb, and does not express a complete thought. The following material will cover the four most common types of fragments, with examples and instruction...

...Analysis of the story: Summary: the story is about Mrs. Wilson and her son, Johnny, and Boyd who´s Johnny’s friend. Mrs. Wilson just finished making gingerbreads and called her son, Johnny, inside for lunch. Johnny asks whether his friend Boyd could join them for lunch. Mrs. Wilson assumes that Boyd is coming from a poor family since he´s black and therefore offers him some clothing. When Boyd rejects the offer Mrs. Wilson gets disappointed at him for not accepting the offer with gratitude. Characters: we got 3 persons in this short story. First we got Mrs. Wilson that appears to be a little bit judging when she offers Boyd clothing when she hears that his father works in a factory and his sister works as a teacher. Then we got Johnny who is Mrs. Wilson’s son and Boyd’s friend. The last person in the story is Boyd who is a black boy probably the same age as Johnny, which means about 12 years old. Storyline: Presentation: we meet Mrs. Wilson just finishing her gingerbreads and calling on Johnny, telling him lunch is ready. Development: Johnny introduces Boyd to his mother and they start having a conversation. Point of no return: Boyd reveals what his parents do for a living and Mrs. Wilson offers Boyd some clothes because she thinks his family is poor. Climax: Boyd rejects Mrs. Wilsons offer, and Mrs. Wilson gets disappointed at Boyd for not being grateful Fading out: Johnny breaks into the conversation and taking Boyd to go out playing again.

...essay – After You, My Dear Alphonse! The novel is written by Shirley Jackson in 1943. “After You, My Dear Alphonse” shows how the 1940’s racist attitudes were - (and in all probability still are) - influenced by children’s parents. It does really show, how stereotypical the view was regarding African-American’s. The novel is taking place in Mrs. Wilson’s house, where she just finished baking gingerbread. She heard her son Johnny arrives, but a second voice appeared. It is an African American boy, named Boyd, and he is a bit smaller than Johnny. He is carrying kindling wood, and Mrs. Wilson reprimands Johnny for not helping his friend. They invited him for lunch, and Mrs. Wilson inquires about Boyd’s family with hesitation. She inquires about the profession of Boyd’s father, and furthermore, she started questioning about, why Boyd’s mother does not work. Underlying, Johnny is chastising his own mother, when he pointed that she does not work either. Mrs. Wilson offered Boyd secondhand clothing, but Boyd declines politely the offer. Mrs. Wilson denies Boyd any more gingerbread and chastises him for being ungrateful. She insists that she is only disappointed, as Boyd is fully aware of the fact that she is mad. “After You, My Dear Alphonse!” is operating with a couple of themes. The main themes are Racism and prejudices. It is emphasized in the text, where Mrs. Wilson says plenty of narrow things, which are mentioned below by some examples. “What about all your other...

...really like how you focused your post on similarities rather than differences. The discussion among my education classes seem to always focus on the cultural differences rather than similarities. I have often wondered if too much focus on the cultural difference is only creating a bigger divide between individuals of differing cultures. What do you think? Furthermore, you explain how to identify common human similarities found in folktales, such as mercy, love, and courage. I really like the books you have chosen, especially the Polar Express. Jeremy, The Gingerbread man and Peter Pan are popular classics that children have enjoyed for years. They are enjoyable books to read. Your post discusses the important value of pleasure. You did a great job outlining how pleasurable the experience is when reading a traditional or folktale story. Children who are exposed to pleasurable readings, like the Gingerbread man, are more likely to look forward to reading another book. The book Peter Pan captures the minds of its reader. Because of books like Peter Pan, young readers learn that books are a form of entertainments and adventure. Great Post! Ebony, Your post brings out the importance of humor. You discuss the importance of laughing at one’s self as well as at others. This is so true. Life is to serious and it is nice to read a book that brings about laughter. I have never heard of the book, Snoring Beauty before. I will have to look that one up. It sounds like...

...In February of 2008, I visited a tiny restaurant by the name of Cakes&Ale. Accompanied by local Chefs and Mixologists, I had no idea what I was in store for. We ordered several small plates to share, beers, and a few desserts. Amongst the desserts was a small plate with 3 cream-filled cookies called “Phatty Cakes”, that to me, resembled little debbie's oatmeal pies. Skeptical, I picked one up and took a bite. Contrary to my preconceived notions, this little delicious treat turned out to be a marscarpone filled gingerbread whoopie pie. Soft gingerbread cookies with a sweet yet savory marscarpone filling, that almost melts in your mouth. After my initial visit, I would visit Cakes&Ale solely for the infamous “Phatty Cakes”. At 3 cakes for $6, I would stock up buying over a dozen little treats. And no, I never bothered to share, nor did I bother to tell anyone where I got them; they were truly my little secret. After years of consuming Phatty Cakes, I had to know who was behind the tiny delicious treat. Pastry Chef, Cynthia Wong was the mastermind behind this decadent little treat. “The 36-year-old Southerner has held a lot of jobs in the Atlanta food industry. She was the production manager for Via Elisa Fresh Pasta, a food stylist for the TBS program “Dinner & a Movie” and even a food reviewer for Creative Loafing. But she has found her metier at Billy Allin’s Cakes & Ale restaurant.”( Kessler 2010) In 2011, the Pastry Chef behind my favorite dessert, took her recipe...

Hansel takes a slice of bread and leaves a trail of bread crumbs to follow home. However, after they are once again abandoned, the children find that birds have eaten the crumbs and they are lost in the woods. After days of wandering, they follow a beautiful white bird to a clearing in the woods and discover a large cottage built of gingerbread and cakes, with window panes of clear sugar. Hungry and tired, the children begin to eat the rooftop of the candy house, when the door opens and a "very old woman" emerges and lures them inside, with the promise of soft beds and delicious food. They comply, unaware that their hostess is a wicked witch who waylays children to cook and eat them. The next morning, the witch locks Hansel in an iron cage in the garden and forces Gretel into becoming a slave. The witch feeds Hansel regularly to fatten him up, but Hansel cleverly offers a bone he found in the cage (presumably a bone from the witch's previous captive) and the witch feels it, thinking it is his finger. Due to her blindness, she is fooled into thinking Hansel is still too thin to eat. After weeks of this, the witch grows impatient and decides to eat Hansel, "be he fat or lean." She prepares the oven for Hansel, but decides she is hungry enough to eat Gretel, too. She coaxes Gretel to the open the...
