CEIP PLURILINGÜE TIRÁN
Tirán, Moaña SPAIN
This year, we're going to follow The Flat Stanley Project with the 1st grade student in our American PenPal 2018.
This project was started in 1995 by Dale Hubert, a third grade school teacher in London, Ontario, Canada.
It is meant to facilitate letter-writing by school children to each other.
We're going to follow our friends in the Jeffferson Elementary School, in this project.
First, we created our particular Flat Stanleys. The girls and boys in 1st grade decorated the clothes of their Stanleys. The teachers took the pictures of the students, and the kids wrote some sentences in English about themselves. Name, age and adress.
The Spanish Flat Stanleys were already sent, they're flying to Winnona, USA.
Now, we'll introduce every student showing the different parts of CEIP PLURILINGÜE TIRÁN.
This is Mateo showing us his Flat Stanley in front of the winners of the last Halloween Spelling Bee poster.
Gael is showing us our special Sea created by Kindergarten 5 students in Art.
It reflects the main school topic.
These 3 boys are, from right to left, Anxo, Nicolás and Lucas. They are showing us the Kindergarten building and part of the amazing playground full of trees and grass.

We are looking forward to seeing the American Flat Stanleys in Tirán.
Dear friends,

desiring to watch yours!!!m
Here are the American Flat Stanleys come from USA during Christmas.
Every kid is going to take home one American friend to show to his/her family.
And the teachers have their own Flat Stanleys from the American Teacher, Erin, and the Spanish conversation assistant from Barcelona, Carla.
Thank you all for being here with us. It’s a pleasure to have your Flat Stanleys in Tirán.
The whole class took their Flat Stanleys home, showing and telling their families about them.
Back at school, we’re going to prepare a nice poster where to show the American Penpal friends to the rest of the school.
This is the original book that our teacher friend, Erin, sent us as a present to get to know the story about Flat Stanley.
Thank you, Erin, you’re so kind!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💖💖💖
