Flat Stanley

 

 

In our class we read a funny book called Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown. The book is about a young boy named Stanley who is accidentally squished “as flat as a pancake” when a bulletin board falls on him while he is asleep. Stanley is very flat but otherwise fine. Stanley’s family did not have enough money to send him on a train or plane to visit a friend in California, so they decided to fold him up and put him in a large envelope and mail him. The story goes on to tell how Stanley discovers some real advantages to being flat. Our class has decided that we would like to do the same with our Flat Stanley’s.

 

We are posting our own Flat Stanley’s to friends and relatives all around Ireland and the WORLD. We will put our photos up here when they arrive.

We have a map displayed on our classroom window to keep track of all the places Stanley has visited.

Autumn Scarecrows

We are very busy in 2nd class working on our scarecrows. We brought different types of fabric to school to dress our scarecrows! We are working hard to construct their faces, hats, clothes, hands, hair and feet! We look forward to showing you the final product!

Snowman at Sunset

First Class performed ‘Snowman at Sunset’. We are all so proud of the snowman, Mrs Sun, the snowflakes and all the children wrapped up snug and warm in their winter clothes. The songs and lines were fantastic. Bhí dán againn. ‘Calóga Sneachta’ an ainm a bhí air.

Well done to all the children!
