Flat Travellers Geography

Posted on June 4, 2008
Filed Under Uncategorized |

Jenny has sent me this great idea for geography. She says;

“We are just getting involved in ‘Flat Travellers’. It is based upon the book ‘Flat Stanley’ where a boy is flattened and can send himself anywhere in an envelope, he travels the world. The children make their own ‘flat traveller’, laminate it and then send it to a host family with a journal which the family then complete and return with some mementoes, pictures, photos etc of what they have been getting up to with their flat traveller.

The journal then makes up into a scrapbook which the children can keep. Ours will have a world map, maps of countries etc. as well as the journals to see what we can learn as the flat travellers go on their adventures.”

You can sign up to this Yahoo group to get involved.
