As promised, here's my third and final field trip idea. Every year as a reward for working do hard, we take the kids to Luna Park in Coney Island. Yes, I know it's not an academic trip but all work and no play....
Tickets prices range from $17-$22 depending on how many kids you have and with that they get an unlimited ride bracelet for 2 hours to all of the rides in the Luna Park section. There are 2 sections and one doesn't open until noon. Altogether, there are about a dozen rides for middle schoolkids to go on. Believe me, I have never had a kid tell me they were bored or had nothing to do. There are a few food stands within the parks, as well as shops and games.
Overall, it's a great day and the kids love it. It can be very crowded and if it's sunny, there's very little shade. Other than that, it's a perfect end of the year trip.
Just like the aquarium,you can take the Q or F to West 8th or the D or N to Stillwell.
