WELCOME TO A NEW SCHOOL YEAR!!
It's nearly the end of summer. You'll say goodbye to the beach days, the swimming pools, the flip-flops and the sun cream shortly. Soon you'll be returning to school. Think of the start of each school year like a new beginning. It's a good opportunity to get started on the right foot.
HAVE A FANTASTIC YEAR!!
Your English teacher,
Gloria.
Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday in the United States and Canada (among other countries). Historically, Thanksgiving was intended to give thanks to God for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. Thanksgiving has its historical roots in religious and cultural traditions and has long been celebrated in a secular manner as well. In the U.S., Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November (Canada celebrates it on the second Monday in October)
Eating plays a large role in the celebration of Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving Day, families and friends usually gather for a large meal including turkey. Major American cities have parades, the most famous being New York's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
American football is also a major part of Thanksgiving celebrations in the United States. Professional games are traditionally played on Thanksgiving Day.
WELCOME BACK AGAIN!
