The Plan for the Gingerbread House

<h1>The Plan for the Gingerbread House</h1><h1>A STEM Engineering Story</h1><p><br></p><p><strong>Come one come all! The Gingerbread Fair opens soon!</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Teams of kids are baking building and decorating. The project guidelines are clear: the winning house must stand upright on its own and a gingerbread boy and girl must fit inside.</p><p><br></p><p>Sounds easy? It would be except...cookies burn the icing is too thin the house caves-in someone is eating the candy decorations and-oh!-they forgot about the gingerbread boy and girl.</p><p><br></p><p>Follow the team as they struggle to create the perfect gingerbread house. Young engineers will learn to overcome problems and press on to a finished house. At the end they evaluate their efforts and plan for a better gingerbread house.</p><p><br></p><p>Need a winter STEM engineering project? This book inspires the budding engineers to think about the classic gingerbread house in a new way. Written in a lyrical rhyme it's sure to please the language arts folks too.</p>
