Hello! We are a group of 3rd graders from Lexington, Kentucky. Our school is called Athens-Chilesburg Elementary. We are so excited to introduce you to our classroom friend, Flat Stanley.
Flat Stanley was born in Lexington, Kentucky. He is now a 3rd grader at Athens-Chilesburg Elementary School (or ACE for short). His favorite subject in school is math because he loves numbers. He especially loves PE class because he gets to run around and play fun activities. Flat Stanley’s hobbies are riding his bike and collecting pins. (He is currently wearing a UK pin.) His favorite food is pizza with lots of cheese. Be careful because Flat Stanley is allergic to bananas and broccoli! When it’s rainy or cold outside, he likes to read books and drink hot chocolate. Flat Stanley also likes being outdoors. His favorite thing to do outside is ride his bike. Flat Stanley loves going to school at ACE because his teacher is the best and he gets to see all of his friends everyday.
Lexington is Flat Stanley’s hometown. It is a great city to live in. It is located in the Appalachian Mountains and the “Bluegrass State.” Lexington has rivers, lakes, hills, and valleys. The weather in Lexington is different in each season. In the spring it is rainy and summers in Lexington are very hot and humid. It is breezy and chilly in the fall, but in the winter it can get very cold. Flat Stanley’s favorite season is fall because he loves when the leaves on the trees change to bright, warm colors.
Flat Stanley’s favorite sports team is the Kentucky Wildcats. He loves to go to Rupp Arena and watch the UK basketball team. And on Saturdays in the fall, he can be found tailgating in front of Commonwealth Stadium before UK football games. Flat Stanley also enjoys going to Keenland in the spring to watch the Thoroughbred horses race.
