This year's project was organized by Nancy Golubic, a first grade teacher in Boardman,
Ohio. We made a Stanley to send to family friends or relatives as an optional
activity. A letter of explanation went home with Stanley of course.
Our Stanleys' Family Trips
Sean's
Flat Stanley visited his cousin, Matthew, in Doylestown, PA.
Stanley really enjoyed his
visit there, riding on a back hoe, climbing a tree, finding a nest, and visiting a
ballet class with Matthew's sister. A highlight of his vacation was going to Kids
Castle Park!

Stanley found a bird's nest!
Paige's Flat Stanley: Florida Vacation

Stanley visited Paige's MomMom &
PopPop. He watched dolphins, loved the beach, and collected sharks' teeth for our
whole class! Stanley got a new Boogie Board (see the picture) and found baby
alligators at the lake! He loved riding in a golf cart and watching people play
tennis. Great florida trip! |

Giana's Stanley visited her cousin
Kirsten in Florida. You can see Stanley had a great time, playing on a jungle gym
and swing. He always wore his seatbelt too!
Adventures of Flat Stanley -
coming soon!
We'll also made Stanleys to mail out to classes
in several different states. Information about ourselves was included along with a
journal. Students in the host classes treated our Stanleys as honored guests, taking
them around with them and recording in the journals. We looked forward to our Stanleys
returning to share their adventures with the class!
Flat Stanleys coming from the other classes
were our guests. Each student had the opportunity to take at least one Stanley
home to visit.
In past years this project has been a highly
motivating way to learn about other parts of the country. It's lots of fun too!
Here are the first of nine Stanleys spending
time with us during the year:
