My second cousin, Owen, is in the third grade; and as part of his social studies class, they read a book titled, Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown. The story is about a happy-go-lucky boy that was unfortunately crushed by a bulletin board. Yikes!
The now flat Stanley has since discovered that he can see the world by folding himself up into an envelope, mailing himself to different corners of the globe.
What a fantastic idea!
The Flat Stanley project will allow students a sense of realism knowing that the Flat Stanley they colored in has actually been in the pictured places.
I kind of wish I could sit in on the lesson when all of the Flat Stanley's make it back to Mrs. Dietrich's Grade 3 Class!
