Want to VC about 9/11?

I had a friend share that 9/11 was such a difficult event for all of us to deal with that as a history teacher, it was not something she would consider discussing with her Junior High students.  Most of them were toddlers at the time....

If anyone can do this session welll....it will be GNG:

9/11: TEN YEARS LATER – LIVE FROM NYC!

Ten years ago on September 11th, US national security was compromised, international relations became strained and lives were changed forever.  In what ways have the events that took place on September 11th impacted the lives of so many and how have they changed US relations with the Arab world?

In this 2-Part PULSE program, students will reflect upon the impact of 9/11 in light of the Arab Spring and discuss how current events will shape our future.  Students will have the opportunity to share their personal experiences and learn an important piece of our history while discussing politics, international relations, and U.S. security.  Through individual reflection and classroom discussion with an exciting guest speaker, students will share their thoughts and ideas for the future.
