The 2nd grade teachers at Pleasant Hill Elementary provided a great opportunity for their students last week. In spirit with the childrenâs book, Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown, Mrs. Haught and Mrs. Trippett made flat paper versions of themselves and mailed them to their students!
Children nowadays donât really play with paper dolls anymore, but you can see how much they enjoyed playing with these photograph paper dolls of their teachers.

Upon the arrival, the students were encouraged to take their âflat teachersâ on adventures in their everyday quarantine life. They were then asked to write about the experience they had with their âflat teachersâ and share their day with the class on the PHE 2nd grade Facebook site.
As you can see, the students really enjoyed this simple activity, and it was a great example of encouraging children to use their imagination.
