The Genki English Gingerbread Man Song & Christmas Play!

Plays can be a great way to end the year.   It can, however, be a little tricky finding one that has a good story and easy enough English.  Over the past few years I’ve been working on a Gingerbread Man play, and I’m very excited to say it’s finally here!

Use the  Words, Song and game in the Teacher’s Set to teach the vocab ( or “flip” the classroom and have the kids learn the words at home or on their phones using the Students’ Set)

The Play….

Then you can try the play!   There are many ways to try it, and here is a quick video of the simplest:

1. Read through the picture book and mini lesson on the software.
2. Put the kids in a circle.
3. One person comes to the middle to sing the gingerbread man lines.
4. Everyone else becomes the other characters.
5. Sing the chorus with gestures.
6. At the end they all try and eat the gingerbread man!

Here it is in action with Virginie’s kids:
