One of Grace Classical Academy’s distinctives is its commitment to teach history chronologically. This year, Miss Huband’s 5th/6th grade class is studying Early Modern times, including the beginning days of the United States of America. In honor of Thanksgiving and to add poetic knowledge to her students’ study of the Pilgrims, Miss Huband organized a Thanksgiving Feast. Each place setting included 5 kernels of corn to remind the students that during the first hard winter, the Pilgrim's daily ration of food plummeted to five mere kernels of corn. The students also enjoyed turkey, corn bread, pumpkin soup, green beans, cider, and apple pie.
