-To teach students' about NYC's rich culture and history, which in turn, impacts modern society.
 * Goals and Objectives:**

-To see how various neighborhoods are superbly diverse = very kaleidoscopic/melting pot, etc. -Also, debunk many of the stereotypical myths about varying neighborhoods and cultures/people, which are often perpetuated in differing movies, T.V. shows, magazines, and countless news mediums, etc.

- Researched the rich history and cultures the varying neighborhoods prior to visiting them. With that said, students were well-informed about culture & history of NYC. - Made various observations about the neighborhoo ds, and even interacted the "locals." - Had discussions - compared and contrast observations with research. - We had first hand experiences through the foods/cuisine of the differing cultures. - Utilizing Edublog.com throughout the week, students were asked to culminate their findings full-circle by correctively synthesizing their research with hands-on/exploratory observations.
