Many of you may be or are too young to appreciate what happened on September 11, 2001.
1. Detail where you were and what you remember about the day.
2. Discuss why you believe we were attacked.
3. Watch Falling People, What the Firemen Heard, and Call from Inside. I warn you, these videos are not for the faint of heart but they shed light on parts of the Tragedy generally withheld from children.
4.What can we learn from this?

1. When the Terroist attack happened, I was in a grocery store with my mom in Georgia, I remember her saying, "OMG a plane crashed into the twin towers?" she said to some lady.
2. I believe we were attacked because of the way america is, violent and so much hatred towards people. I also think we were attacked because Osama Bin Laden hated americans.
3. I watched the Falling Men video, and I seen how people were jumping out of the window because there was nothing else they could do and they did not wana burn to death.
4. We can learn that our country can't protect us at all time, anything can happen.
WHEN THE PLAIN HAD CRASHED INTO THE TWIN TOWERS I WAS IN THE 1ST GRADE. WHEN I WENT HOME I TOLD MY MOMMA THAT IT WAS TO BIG BUILDS THAT WAS FALLING OUT OF THE SKY. SHE LAUGH AT ME AND TOLD ME NO BABY WE WAS BEEING ATTRACTED. AND I STARTED YELLING AROUND THE HOUSE AND SHE STOP ME AND SAID ITS NOT IN KANSAS CITY ITS IN NEW YORK CITY. AND THAT IS WHAT I REMEMBER FROM 9/11
1) i remember that i was at school and my class had see it on the new and everyone was talk about it when i got home my mom talk about it with me and my sister.
2) i believe we were attacked because Osama Bin Laden didnt like americans so him and some of his friend crash the plain into the twin towers.
3) i think people jumped because they didnt want to die slow by burning to death so they jumped out the window.
4) i learned that anything can happen at any time and america might not be able to
protect us.
On September 11, 2001 I was at school when the attack happend. I remember I was in my Art class drawing a picture for my grandpa because it was his birthday on September 10. My teacher was on the phone talking to one of her family memebers and she began to cry. I think because her cousin was on one of the planes that crashed. I didn't really understand what was happening then because I was too young so I didnt have a reaction to the big event. I believe we were attacked because many people from other countries didnt like Americans so they decided to come up with this crazy suicide attemp to kill as many people as they could.
On September 11, 2001 I was at school I was six years old, I was in the first grade I went to Swinney Elementary right off the plaza and I was worling on math, and my teacher was on her computer and she all of a sudden said "Oh My God" and the whole class looked at her and we really wanted to know why she out bursted that. She said "I know you are kids but I have to tell you something" and she told us, and the whole class was sad and I coulden't believe it and I diden't understand why they crash into the twin towers. Now that I am older I understand that the people who did that hate America and all Americans, but I still cant understand why they did that to kill millions of people, millons of people were debistated, mad, sad, and depressed. So many feelings were going through many people mind that day. What we can learn from this is that there are sick people out there, and we just have to look out for them, we will never know what will happen next.
The day of 9-11 i was at school at gordan parks. I believe it was after lunch.
We were attacked because we kept taking their oil.
Them people jumping out the window has heart because thats a long way to fall.
I can learn that andbody country can be terriores.!
One day after school I asked my mom and dad whats 9/11,and they told me what happened and how it happen and I feel bad for those people who died and suffer in pain for the one's who still alive, and also think its brave for the man who jumped out the window just to get out the twin towers. I learned that be prepared at all times.

I believe we were attacked because many people from other countries didn't like Americans so they decided to come up with this crazy suicide attempt to kill as many people as they could. After watching these 3 video it is very sad. I couldn't imagine what these people family's are going through. This is the reason why I really don't wanna ride a plane because I'm scared that this might happen to me. I think we can learn that appreciate your life while you can because you never know what's going to happen.
When nine eleven happend it was sad because all those people died helplessly.
1) i remember because i was at my old school allen village and we herd that the tower had fallen so we had turned on the tv in the class room and watched it alot of people where jumping and falling out of windows we where just lilttle kids we really didnt know what was going on but we knew that it was not good.
2)i believe that we where attacked because Osama Bin Laden does not like the united states and he wanted to see what would happen if we where affected by something he wanted to see the reaction so him and his friends where in the plane that crasehed into the towers.
3) when i washed the call that the man made you could tell that he was very scared and wanted to get out but as i saw when ohe said O.M.G (ohh my god) the building he was iin had fallen to the grown and alot of the fire dept was on it s way from new york and other places.
4) i learned that things can happen at any time so be ready to do what you have to do to be safe and make sure your family is safe so that means take all this stuff serious.
1) i dont know where i was when this happend.
2) we were attacked because we were taking there oil.
3) i saw it, and it was sad
4) i learned the people actually fell far
1 i was at school doing math and after school they was talkin about it on tv
2 terriosts
3 people are different kinds of humans

When 9-11 happen i font really remember everything that happen. I know that i was in kindergarten and we was in the class and a teacher had come in the room and turn on the tv. All of the sudden we was on lock down we couldnt go nowhere. But now that iam older a saw the movie of what had happen and i didnt know that people was jumping out the window and how the planes when into the building and it was just so weird it looked fake. It was white and pieces of the building everywhere. i think i would never look at that again.

The day of September 11, 2001, i dont remember that much. I was in first grade, and i was at school when the attack happened. I believe we were attacked because of the way us Americans act. We can learn that we are not protected all the time and we cant depend on anyone else.
well i really dont remeber that much about september 11th to much. but i do remeber that the airplanes were crashing into the twim towers. but to be honest i dont think we were attacked but i watched a video and i remeber seeing people jumping out of planes and the windows
The day of 9-11 I and my mama was at home and she was looking at the news and it said that we Americans are under attack and many people had been killed in a building more then 100 people.
On 9/11 I was in school at Derrick Thomas Academy. I was in class and we sat in class watchin t.v about what jus happpin.
watching the video "911 world trade center while tower collapse"
was very distribing because when you think about you think about how all the people have died in the building.
I really dont know were i was at doing this event but what i do remanber is that i was shock to here that all of those people was merduered and that they would wrather jump from a tower that high and i dont know why the terriest would do anything like that and i would never sacerfice my self for a place that everybody dont even know me at. but iam sorry for the ones that past. r.i.p world train center deaths and building.
I remember coming home one day and seing it all on the news and not realy caring because i didnt really know what was going on but I think we were attacked because they dont like us and wanted to destroy something we loved.
9/ll was a sad day,i remember i was alot younger so i didnt appreciate all the things like i appreciate now.I do remember the terorist attack. Alot of people died in america.What i do know about the attack that there were two plans that crashed into the twin towers. Alot of people worked there it was a shopping center in there a daycare & some people died trying to help the people inside like firefighters.
1) I can't really tell you about what I rememeber but I do know I was in school & the teachers had us watching it on the news in class. When I got home my father talked to me & my brother about it.
2) I Beleive we were attacked because Osama Bin Laden didn't think Americans were being fair to their country, so he decided to take action. Maybe it was a personal Problem.
3) That day was a huge devastation for the ones who lived there & for the ones with loved ones there. It is still a huge deal in todays society.
4) I learned that sometimes you have to do what you have to do in a life or death situation.
On the day of the attack I was in school.I think we were attack because people thoght they were treated unfair.I learned that sometimes you are not safe were ever you are because things happen.
1)The day the attack happened I was at maybe at school or at home I don,t really know for sure.
2)I think we was attacked because someone could have had a serious and decided to get pay back.
3)What we can learn is that day is an important day to keep in mind, and we should really feel bad what happend to the people who lost their lives out there
Thank You
On the day of 9/11/2001 I was in first grade at C.A Burg. I was at home with my grandma and grandpa. I think my grandma was telling me about it but i was to young to remember.
I believe we were attacked because these three man were trying to get revenge. They made the plain crash into the two twin towers in New York. Til this day were the twin towers took place the damage stuff is stil remaing there.
I learned that family member, childrens, Aunt Uncle and ect lost thier love ones. 9/11 is probably not that improtant to us, but to the people that lost their loves is very.
When 9/11 happened in remember i was at my school and my teacher was talking about how the tween towers was being attacked by airplanes, well she did not tell it to the class she told it to one of the other teachers, but i really didnt understand what was going on at the time.
I think we was attacked becuase Osama Binladen is very racism towards america and he wanted revenge which is not the answer at all.
What i can learn from this is that anything can happen at anytime and we meaning us (USA) need to watch out and be prepared when or if it happens, and i learned that many people lost their love ones and their still sad over it to this day.
On the day of the nine eleven I was at school I was in the kindergarten and I attended Lee. a tolbert. I think that we were attacked because of problems between us our president at the time and other countries. I think that we did something wrong but that nine eleven shouldnve happend at all. Hearing the police listen to the people was sad because they were scared. We can learn that innocent people died.
I cant remember much because I was in the 1st grade. I remember being in class and the teacher turning to the news station. My teacher told us every thinh that happend, and why it happend. It was very sad. one of my class mates family members was there and saw the entire thing. Alot of people were hurt very badly. we were too young to understand about any of this. My teacher asked us to come up with diferent solutions to help fix all of the damage that was caused. 9-11 was a very sad day that will never be forgot.
On the day of the 9/11 I believe I was in kindegarten, but I don't remember what we were doing. I think the terrorist attacked, because if you remember what Malcom X said about Presidents John F. Kennedies assasanation, "The chickens coming home to roost." Which interprets into basically saying the white man brought it on innocent people, because of what they have done to other races and people abroad and here in the U.S.
My personal opinion on 9/11 is that it was a horrible tragedy. I dont think all Middle East people are mean, bomb mob killers, but I think theres a good amount. I was 5turning 6 so I really didnt know anything but as i got older i heard more, more about it.
people falling thats just crazy but people in the middle east is not all killer its just some........i just start school i just wont say some thing on here
dats crazii the middle east people was dropping bombs dey sum straight up killers bro
