We will be taking a one hour guided tour called "It Happened in Brooklyn":
students will meet a diverse range of residents from Brooklyn's earliest Native american settlements, to the men and the women who fought in the revolutionary war on Brooklyn's shores, to the Brooklynites who worked to abolish slavery, immigrants from all over the world, and the women who kept america going by working in the brooklyn Navy Yard during WWII. With primary sources from the Brooklyn Historical Society collection, such as photographs, artwork, documents and oral histories students will engage with key moments in our nation's history and learn how they played out on Brooklyn's streets.
We will be leaving school at 9:30 am and be back by 12:30pm.
We will travel by school bus.
