J. B. Griffin Elementary School - Mrs. DeLand's First Grade Class


We, at Mrs. DeLand's transitional first grade, are very excited to have Stanley visiting our classroom. We are a class of 15 with 10 boys and 5 girls. This class is a first of it's kind here at J.B. Griffin Elementary. We were not quite ready for first grade and are taking this year to perfect our skills. Stanley will brush up on his reading and mathematical skills during his visit.

While Stanley is visiting our classroom he will be accompanying us on a field trip to Johnson's Pumpkin Farm on October 24. There, we will enjoy apple cider and doughnuts. This trip will allow Stanley to see how the cider is made. In addition, it will give Stanley an idea of how we spend our autumn here in Michigan. He can compare a Michigan autumn to others he may have seen all around the world and share with us the differences. Stanley will also go with us to see a play. At the end of May, our class will be going to the play, "If You Give Mouse A Cookie." Hopefully, Stanley can learn a lot in his visit to our classroom and maybe have a little fun too.

Greetings from York PA! Your Flat Stanley is visiting with us now. Students are taking turns bringing him home and writing about his adventures. He is having an awesome time and even got to enjoy some snow yesterday. We also think your journal is great!
