    "I'm sure by now you've all heard, "There's an app for that!" There's an app for almost anything you might ever need! This wiki is an attempt to lasso in some of the language arts apps that match our new common core standards. If an app addresses a particular age/grade level we've noted that otherwise it is appropriate for all age groups."

Flat Stanley: Flat Stanley - 0 views

  •  
    The basic principle of The Flat Stanley Project is to connect your child, student or classroom with other children or classrooms participating in the Project by sending out "flat" visitors, created by the children, through the mail (or digitally, with The Flat Stanley app). Kids then talk about, track, and write about their flat character's journey and adventures. Although similar to a pen-pal activity, Flat Stanley is actually much more enriching-students don't have to wonder where to begin or what to write about. The sender and the recipient already have a mutual friend, Flat Stanley. Writing and learning becomes easier, flows naturally, and tends to be more creative. This is what teachers call an "authentic" literacy project, in that kids are inspired to write of their own passion and excitement about the project, and given the freedom to write about many things through the rubric of the Flat Stanley character.
