I chose to share a video about the 9-11 memorial museum. This memorial was opened to the public on September the 12th 2011. I thought that it was interesting to listen to the thought process of the chief architect as he described all of the emotional responses that his team was trying to elicit from visitors of the the memorial. The memorial pools represent the tragic event of 9-11 while the surrounding skyscrapers represent a trust in the future. The museum building is said to be a bridge between the past and the future. I think it's a fitting place for people to visit and reflect on the impact that this has on us all today.

This is a video of 9-11 song. A little girl lost her father on 9-11 and was very upset. She expressed how much she missed her dad and is hoping that her dad does come back. This song is one of my favorites because the little girl is very sad but at the same time still happy for what she has accomplished and is able to talk to her dad and tell him what she has accomplished while he is gone. This little girl expresses her feelings, very emotional and very upset. She doesn't want to believe that her daddy is gone forever.

Basically what this video tells you is a story of a family that lost their dad in 9/11. He was a firefighter that was called to the site. The mom was worried and kept calling the station to see if he was okay but all she knew was that he was at ground zero. She had a gut feeling that she wasn't going to see him again. The son grew up to achieve him and his fathers dream.

A sum up of this video was mostly about how and what happened with the world trade center. Two planes crashed into the biggest towers in New York City called the World Trade Center. There were terrorists invading our country. Thousands of people or even more were killed during this tragedy. It's so crazy how people have to live with that regret of there family either dying or even a women or mans husband or wife. Children have to live with this regret of there mother or father dying.

In this video, pictures of the attack on the twin towers are shown. News clips of the planes are also shown. In the clips you can hear the reactions of some of the bystanders. The song playing in the background is called "Where were you when the world stopped turning" by Alan Jackson. The song is about the impact of 9/11 on the American people, and how they looked towards God for an answer. He emphasizes the point that we need to keep our faith, hope, and love through the all of the bad things.

Hey guys. I found a really neat idea that maybe we could do as a school...It is called "Operation Goody Bag." This is a project to support our troops in remembrance of the tragedy of 9-11. It is a very simple project where students decorate a lunch bag and fill it with a poem, a word search, and four pieces of candy. Would you be interested in doing this project, and maybe getting our school to take part in it? How many bags do you think we could collect as an entire school?

On September 11th you can sign up for the National day of Service and Remembrance. You can volunteer to help build homes. Feed the homeless and the needy. September 11 is called the National Day of Service and Remembrance because of all the Police officers and Fire fighters that risked their lives and all the lost men women and children during the attacks on the U.S. You can volunteer to do many things to show your gratitude to all the people that risked and/or lost their live lives and family during the attacks on 9/11.

A tribute to the attack at twin towers. A very bad thing happened September 11. A lot of people were injured, or killed. This video is for the day that a lot of people were killed from attackers. Also many people were upset because they had people dead that were in the family due to this.
