First of all, sorry that the map didn't work yesterday. It works from my computer, but not from mobile devices. If you read and discussed, and told me about it, you still got the credit yesterday. I've changed it, but I don't love the new map, as it is a bit difficult to read the coordinates.
For the rest of the week, we're discussing the Middle East, the Sept. 11th terrorist attacks - how they changed the world, and how they changed the United States.
Today, I tried to get a feeling for what the students have already learned. There is a lot of misinformation out there.
After that, and a little discussion, we watch the news bulletins as they happened. What we watch is actually a much shorter version of the clips you'll see below. If you weren't here, check them out.
Students may earn extra credit by reading and discussing the blog with an adult. Ask the adult what they remember from 9/11 and the days and months that followed. Write down a few of their responses on a sheet of paper and have them sign it. Make sure that your name, date and hour are on the paper and turn it in tomorrow.
