Writing New York

The students at the Benson Elementary school, P.S. 200 continues to rehearsal for the annual dance festival. This event allows students to show their creativity and school emphasizes on visual and performing arts as an extra cirriculum activity. The event will take place in the beginning of June on their first half day. This free event will be taken place outside on their school yard. Anyone and everyone is invited. Just show up early and get a good spot. Neighbors, friends, and families gather around the school yard to watch the children perform. Each grade performs to a different song that is chosen by the teachers of that grade level. The choreography is also taught by their teachers. But sometimes people from neighboring churches volunteer to help them out and contribute their ideas for the choreography and costumes. The costumes are usually simple. The students may paint or dye their shirts, wear colorful clothes, wear sunglasses, or some type of head wear that they create on their own. But the students in each grade has to have similar costumes or outfits. Here are some parent reviews of the school.
