The Adventures of Flat Stanley in Rochester


Flat Stanley

Hello! I'm Flat Stanley. I'm here visiting for a while, going with the Currans where they go. My friend, Allison, sent me here to her cousin Claudia as part of a class project. Claudia's big brother, Tyler, is helping her out. Allison is in the third grade at Ferry Farm Elementary in Fredericksburg, Va.

While I'm here, Allison's class will be busy learning about maps and globes (just like Tyler's class!) and studying Rochester's history, weather and climate, and much more.



The Seneca Park Zoo


Claudia
and me at the zoo.

It's Zoo Boo day at the Seneca Park Zoo! I'm here with Claudia and her dad, Kevin. There are lots of animals here. Well, of course there are! It's a ZOO!




Claudia's dad and me.

Claudia likes to take pictures, too. This is a picture she took of her dad. Isn't he scary??

No, I guess he's not. I would take a picture, too, but I have no hands.




Claudia, the elephants and me.

The elephants are Claudia's favorite animal at the zoo. Today we watched an elephant use his trunk first as a broom to sweep some hay into a pile. Then he used it as a hand to pick up the pile and eat it.

Claudia also likes the tigers, but the pictures from the tiger exhibit were blurry. Claudia's dad says, "Sorry!" (He took them.)




Playing at the zoo.

There's a playground inside the zoo! Claudia and I are playing before going home. It was a fun trip.






See more of my trips!
