We are excited to inform you that Class 5-307 won a spot at 826NYC for a special writing workshop. Each year, teachers enter a lottery for their hard-to-come-by trips. We will be participating in a Writing for Television workshop on Thursday, November 4th, from 10:30 a.m. – 12: 30 p.m. 826NYC is located at 372 5th Avenue in Park Slope, Brooklyn (very close to MS 51!) between 5th and 6th streets. You can read about 826NYC at
http://www.826nyc.org/.We will be leaving school at approximately 9:50 a.m. and taking the F train to the 4th Avenue stop, and walking to 826NYC. The session ends at 12:30 p.m., and weather depending, we will either walk back to school or take the F train back to the 15th Street – Prospect Park station. Our class will be returning to school at about 1:15 p.m.
Students will need to prepare a bagged lunch to eat in our classroom upon our return. Students will also need to be sure to bring a snack since they will be eating lunch later than usual. No glass bottles, please!
This will be our first trip taking the subway, and one of our first trips outside of the classroom. It is very important that students behave as respectful representatives of the PS 154 community. Great behavior may result in the planning of more field trips and activities. Rule breakers may be barred from future activities or trips based on their behavior!
Please view some of 5-307's photos from their Writing Workshop at 826NYC in Park Slope. The students authored a new TV Show about Sasha and her gum wrapper addiction. We also got caught in some lovely November rain on the way home. It was worth it!
