Flat Stanley projects are always a highlight in elementary school.
In the novel of the same name, a boy named Stanley is squished flat by a map and thus is able to mail himself via the post office on all sorts of adventures. Students then get their only Flat Stanley to mail to relatives and friends in other areas to take pictures and send back to them.

But with social distancing and schools switching to eLearning, teachers have taken this project to the next level with Flat Teachers!
They’re mailing letters to their students with a flat Mr. or Mrs. Teacher and ideas for how to share in the fun. The teachers can be actual photos or Bitmojis of their teachers, laminated and ready to have fun with their students. They’re often accompanied by simple ideas to share.

Students can try out these ideas, snap digital photos, and reconnect with their teachers via email. There’s all sorts of fun to be had and it’s a great way for students to know they are still loved and supported by their teachers.
The possibilities are endless and with email and digital photos, it’s an easy project for kids to share back to their teachers too.

With the school year ending so abruptly, students are missing their teachers and teacher are missing their students. The Flat Teacher option is a perfect way to reconnect and have a little bit of fun.
I love this idea so much!
