Let's Trap the Gingerbread Man
In this lesson, students will use the story of "The Three Little Superpigs and the Gingerbread Man" as the context to complete a hands-on STEM activity where they are responsible for building a trap to catch the gingerbread man. They will then incorporate language arts skills/standards by analyzing how the addition of their trap would change the outcomes and personalities of the characters involved in the story.
