Remembering 9/11

It's kind of... odd... to think that the kids I am currently teaching weren't even a twinkle in their parents' eyes when 9/11 happened. I remember where I was, and I'm sure everyone who was alive 13 years ago can identify the exact moment when they heard the news.

I don't want to go into great detail, but the fact of September 11, 2001 should still move Americans today. So, even though my students are currently living in a post-9/11 world, they need to know about an important piece of our recent history.

This video from Nick News is moving, informational, and kid-friendly. I've shown it to my students every year since it's airing on the 10 year anniversary.

Here's the link.
