New York Field Trip Videos

The Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island – Video Tour

No Field Trip to New York, NY would be complete without a visit to see both of these important historical landmarks! The Statue of Libert is a worldwide symbol of freedom, and it is a piece of American history. The Statue was a gift from the French and there are interesting details on how the statue was created and later delivered to the US.

Ellis Island is important as a historical reference, for visitors to see what immigrants would have seen and experienced as part of their journey to become citizens. The museum that is part of Ellis Island shows documents and other interesting items (even some things left behind) by those who came to the USA in search of a better life.
