Friday And The Flat Stanley Project

On Friday we started learning about the different continents in the world. We learnt that there are 7 major land areas in the world called continents. The continents are:

Australasia (where New Zealand is)
Europe
Asia
Africa
North America
South America
Antarctica

We coloured in the continents on world maps and played Geospy, which is a game on the kids National Geographic website that tests you on your knowledge of the continents and countries. The link for this game is on the right hand side tool bar of this blog page if you want to try it at home!

We looked at some of the addresses that people have brought in so far and started to find these places on our map. We finished our Flat Stanleys and wrote a letter as a whole class to go in the envelope with our Flat Stanley to explain what we want people to do. This week we will address our envelopes and publish our letters. Then we will be ready to post our Flat Stanleys. We are all looking forward to learning more about the countries in the world through our Flat Stanleys' adventures.
