Haddie in 2B's Flat Stanley has arrived and checked in from Thousand Oaks, CA. He has had some delicious coffee, went to the pool, got to see where they have the voting all set up, even went to a golf course. His friend Nancy even gave him his own golf cart to help get around.
Flat Conner was able to head to Rapid City to go to their library with his cousins. I wonder if their library is as cool as ours :)
In Library 2B, 2C, and 2S students are reading all about Stanley Lambchop. You may know him as "Flat Stanley" He was flattened by a bulletin board and now gets to go on many adventures. Our students have been mailed off to loved ones and are getting to go on some adventures themselves. As our flat friends check in we are filling in our US maps coloring the states that were visited. We are looking up the capitals, abbreviation, state flag and flower. We are also drawing the state flag and state flower. We have had check ins from 5 states so far.
We have had a lot of "Flat Students check in from all over so far.
