  1. 1.On September 11 i was in elementary school , i was in kindergarten. 2.September 11 effected our community it made people sad and alot of people lost loved ones on that day.I think america is less vulnerable now becuase we are prepared if something big like this would happen to us agian. 3.I think future generations should be educated about this every year on 9/11. Teachers should talk to thier students about this and give a momment of silence. 4.Yes i think september 11 should be a national holiday , hundreds of people 's lives were lost in this attack. We should make september 11 a day of remembrance. 5.I got the news from cable news. My mother came and picked me up from school earily and we were sitten at my grandma's watching the news.

  4. 1)I was in thea secound grade an i was devistetid i didint understand it.
    2)It has infected all of our lifes an every body show there respect to the people who have past, and we are less vulnerable now we have some sort of idea of what could happend.
    3)The only way to be aducated on it is to watch the videos they have on it would be the best way.

  5. 1)My immediate reaction to 9-11 was that this is scary,nerve racking,and a life and death situation.I also thought that the 9-11 attack was made by terrorists.On September,11 i was at my grandparents house and she was telling me and my brothers about what happen. 2) It was impacted on my life because growing up i always had to hear about 9-11. I think America is less vulnerable because of the economy and the environment we live in is terrible. 3)Future educators should teach 9-11 because i think all kids need to know about the danger that 9-11 caused the U.S, and the people around it. They should also show movies,magazines and tell stories about the 9-11 attack. 4)9-11 should be a holiday because of the people that died in there. 9-11 should also be a holiday so that the people in the world that lost there families cn all have a certain day to appreciate their families on that day. 5)I got the news from my grandparents, movies, and the computer. I also learned about 9-11 by going to school and learning new things about9-11 every time.
