Social Studies: How are the 5 boroughs connected?

Today, please watch the introduction video to learn about the five boroughs that make up NYC.  How do we connect the boroughs?

Smart Fact

On this day in 1967 EMI Records released “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” a few days early in the United Kingdom; it would go to number one for 15 weeks in the US and 22 weeks in the UK. Do you know the famous band that sang this song? I’ll give you a hint, they caused something known as The British Invasion in the U.S. If this is the first time you are hearing about The Beatles, then watch this clip to hear a little more: The Beatles Iconic Performance on The Ed Sullivan Show.
