These past 2 weeks, we have been working on a story called Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown, about a young boy who gets flattened overnight when his bulletin board falls on him. Stanley goes on lots of adventures and helps out a lot of people in the story. If you would like to listen to the story, click the link below:
Here’s a shorter version of the story, if you’re short on time:
After reading the story, students have done tons of activities! They got to create their own flat persons and are sending them along with a pen pal from the other Grade 1 class to go on their own adventures. Students wrote letters to their pen pals and will have a chance to respond over the weekend.
Students were also encouraged to download the free Flat Stanley app on their iPhone or iPad to create a flat person and take pics right on the app!
Here’s a fun song about Flat Stanley you can listen to at home!
