“Teachers have participated in ‘Flat Stanley’ projects for years,” Good said. The story, about a child who is flattened like a pancake when his bulletin board falls on him, describes the adventures Flat Stanley takes while traveling in an envelope by mail. Their inspiration came from Pinterest and the children’s book “Flat Stanley” by Jeff Brown. That missed connection spurred Bostick and co-teacher Emily Dossman, along with first grade teacher Annie Good, to assign the “Flat Teacher” project. It is about the relationships and connectivity. “This has been a difficult time in our world and in education,” said Stacy Bostick, who teaches second grade at Sparta. We love this photo version of a Flat Teacher and her template for students uploading their photos.BELTON, TX – Three Sparta Elementary teachers have found a creative way to stay connected with their students during the COVID-19 school closure - they’ve turned themselves into Bitmojis. It makes for varied responses from the kids. We love that this teacher varied the Flat Teacher versions. We love that this one discusses the enrichment packet.
This one encourages going outside and doing homework together. This letter is adorable and encourages kids to take photos of themselves with the Flat Teacher! Not sure where to start? Just check out some of our favorite Flat Teachers and how they are being used during quarantine.
Whether you use your Bitmoji or print a photo of yourself, your students will appreciate having you close by. Many teachers are using this same concept and sending out Adventure sheets to their students as well. The Flat Stanley Project was created to encourage schoolchildren to write letters and document their adventures with the Flat Stanley cutout. We all miss our students, and most of them miss us too! To help bridge the distance learning gap, many teachers are sending out Flat Teacher versions of themselves, based on the ever-popular book Flat Stanley.
