 What’s Happening Around TownWell, I believe we have made it to the homestretch! One more full week, and then we willhave the opportunity to unwind with family andfriends and rejoice in God’s abundant provisionin our lives! I am so looking forward to Thanks- giving, and I hope this upcoming week will be areally special time for the students as we put ona thankful heart and as we learn about ourmany blessings as Americans!During our last full week of school before the brief week to follow, we will learn two of  the three final letters of the alphabet we haveyet to cover (x and y). We will continue to studyand practice our ones, teens, twenties, and thirties number families in addition to learning more about telling time! Miss Brenner and Ihave decided to take a break from science thisweek after finishing our unit on seasons so wecan focus on the history behind Thanksgiving. Please check the Bible section for moreinformation on the specifics of what we will belearning next week.I hope to start reading circles after Thanks- giving, so may I encourage you to take tenminutes each night to work with your child onshort vowel sounds and blends. A list of ideasand activities is available on the Rarin’ to Readactivity guide I sent home two weeks ago. The guide is also online under my class notes sectionat www.ankenychristianacademy.org!Thanks so much,Miss Hult Answers to Questions on the Ranch A: The elementary Christmas concert will beon Monday, December 14.
