Flat Stanley's Grand Finale

We received Flat Stanley letters from all over the world! In the end, letters came to us from as near as North Carolina, Florida, and Mississippi and as far as Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and London. We were sent amazing souvenirs, such as pecans from Texas, leis from Hawaii, and beautiful magnets from Puerto Rico. Each letter opened the students' eyes and allowed them to learn about a new part of the world they might not have already known about. The excitement that came with each returned letter never decreased and it was amazing to see students grow in their knowledge of the world around them. This project helped students learn about US regions and letter writing, but most importantly it allowed them to grow in their understanding of others and peaked their curiosity about the big world that surrounds them. Hopefully someday they can travel to some of these fun places!
