Kids seemed to have a great time in NYC today. We started off at Ellis Island and then this was the first group to visit the 9/11 memorial. It was amazing to see and made a big impact to a group of students who were about four years old when the towers fell and we were there on Memorial Day and saw several men and women in uniform. The kids then saw Wall Street and ate lunch at the South Street Sea Port and it was off to 5th Ave, though you can tell the amazingness of 5th ave has worn off, there aren't many stores any more and not really anything people can afford though they all liked FAO Schwartz.
Then we had a nice bus ride off to Amish country where they had fun swimming and eating pizza. We then read a few books and had a writing activity.
