  • JSynnott1 Sep 11 @ 10:35 PM EDT
    A1: After moment of silence, I told my students my memories of the day and the weeks after, trying to give them a perspective #ieedchat
  • jswilliams Sep 11 @ 10:35 PM EDT
    A1: My students would dispel myths regarding September 11, 2001. Loved when Popular Mechanics had articles about it. #IEedchat
  • AshleyMSJC5 Sep 11 @ 10:36 PM EDT
    A1:I was a history T before being a TOSA. I found the best approach was to give an honest, dispassionate accounting of the events. #IEedchat
  • MathButler Sep 11 @ 10:36 PM EDT
    A1: Ss today often don't remember this, never spend whole class on this, but good to bring up reminder about humanity and values #IEedchat
  • rguztec Sep 11 @ 10:36 PM EDT
    A1:Talk to them about how important it is to be united and remember that we need each other at times like those and these #IEedchat
  • AshleyMSJC5 Sep 11 @ 10:37 PM EDT
    A1cont. I found that the honest accounting of bravery of 1st responders & actions of passengers of flight 93 best honored them. #IEedchat
  • BaynesHeidi Sep 11 @ 10:37 PM EDT
    Yep. I didn't know what to say to my students. We didn't know then what we know now. #ieedchat

    Q1b: How does your school commemorate the 9/11 terrorist attack - victims & heroes? Is there room for improvement? #IEedchat
  • Chrisjlara24 Sep 11 @ 10:38 PM EDT
    A1: I tell my students what I was doing on that day then I show them the then live coverage from ABC when it all happened #IEedchat
  • BaynesHeidi Sep 11 @ 10:38 PM EDT
    Tried explaining it to my 10 yr old yesterday. The images are still hard to watch #ieedchat
    In reply to @AshleyMSJC5
  • DeatraLee_Edu Sep 11 @ 10:38 PM EDT
    A1: Ss would ask where I was so I would tell them. Same as @MathButler, never spent entire class period on it. #IEedchat
  • jswilliams Sep 11 @ 10:38 PM EDT
    A1b: The room we need to create is for cultural understanding and dispelling myths. #IEedchat

    The way we can use google country codes and language translation give us a new avenue to understand the motivations of others. #IEedchat

  • JSynnott1 Sep 11 @ 10:40 PM EDT
    A2b: We have a moment of silence. Could extend convo into current news and analyzing cause and effect. Make it more relevant to Ss #ieedchat
  • ieedchat - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:42 PM EDT
    Q2: Will there be a point when 9/11 goes from being memorialized as a school event to being studied only in history classes? When? #IEedchat
  • jswilliams Sep 11 @ 10:42 PM EDT
    A2: Yes. Students who didn't live through it can't fully grasp how painful it was and how painful the memory of it is. #IEedchat

    I've seen that before. Gives me the proud kind of goosebumps. Ooh-rah. #ieedchat

  • Chrisjlara24 Sep 11 @ 10:42 PM EDT
    A1b: we just do a moment of silence. I think it would be a good opportunity to teach about the lasting damages of stereotyping #IEedchat
  • DeatraLee_Edu Sep 11 @ 10:42 PM EDT
    A1b: Today @PerrisHigh had a moment of silence. The classroom teacher began sharing details with Ss. #IEedchat
    • ieedchat - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:38 PM EDT
      Q1b: How does your school commemorate the 9/11 terrorist attack - victims & heroes? Is there room for improvement? #IEedchat
  • MathButler Sep 11 @ 10:43 PM EDT
    A1b: I've seen schools do a moment of silence, special ceremony from ROTC, simple email from admin. (1/2) #IEedchat
  • AshleyMSJC5 Sep 11 @ 10:43 PM EDT
    A2: That is a loaded question. #IEedchat
  • JSynnott1 Sep 11 @ 10:43 PM EDT
    A2: Yes, like other national news (ex.Kennedy Assignation). When? Prob when generation living through it passes #ieedchat
  • AshleyMSJC5 Sep 11 @ 10:44 PM EDT
    A2: 1/2 9/11 was far more deadly than Pearl Harbor and had more injuries too. It was an attack on the US mainland of civilians... #IEedchat
  • rguztec Sep 11 @ 10:44 PM EDT
    A2:Honestly I think 9/11 is being forgotten already, since many youngster don't remember it or where to young to remember. #IEedchat
  • MathButler Sep 11 @ 10:44 PM EDT
    ...I don't think any 1 thing is significantly better. Doing something in remembrance matters, allow ppl to do something matters. #IEedchat
  • AshleyMSJC5 Sep 11 @ 10:45 PM EDT
    A2: 2/2 so I believe the attack warrants a long formal, special recognition before becoming limited to a chapter in history class. #IEedchat

  • Chrisjlara24 Sep 11 @ 10:45 PM EDT
    A2: Yep it will. Probably within the next 5 years I'm willing to bet or whenever the next tragedy happens. #IEedchat
  • ieedchat - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:46 PM EDT
    Q2b: The attacks are 16 years old and One World Trade Center has been completed. Should we focus on teaching the event as history? #IEedchat
  • MathButler Sep 11 @ 10:46 PM EDT
    A2: When did Americans stop taking time out for Pearl Harbor attack, death of JFK...? I'm sure it'll pass to new form. #IEedchat
  • jswilliams Sep 11 @ 10:46 PM EDT
    A2b: Teach it as history but draw parallels to current issues. Ss need to understand how 911 shaped the course of history. #ieedchat
  • MRoarkPMP Sep 11 @ 10:46 PM EDT
    A2) I'm sure at some point in the future. How many years was it for 12/7/41? #ieedchat
  • MathButler Sep 11 @ 10:47 PM EDT
    A2b: like other defining moments, put it into context on how it impacts today. #IEedchat
  • Chad_Shaner Sep 11 @ 10:47 PM EDT
    Yes this is always the case across time & generations. It's up to the previous generation to instill the importance of remembering #ieedchat
    In reply to @rguztec
  • AshleyMSJC5 Sep 11 @ 10:47 PM EDT
    A2b:I think we can also show how the US rebuilt 1 World Trade Center in a relatively short period of time as a show of resilience. #IEedchat
  • AshleyMSJC5 Sep 11 @ 10:48 PM EDT
    A2b:Yes, history Ts need to make sure they pace their class to cover this important material from the perspective of an historian. #IEedchat
  • rguztec Sep 11 @ 10:48 PM EDT
    A2B:Teach it as history and just like Roman History we can analyze the Human tragedies and events that lead up to such events. #IEedchat
  • DeatraLee_Edu Sep 11 @ 10:48 PM EDT
    A2: Agree w/ @rguztec. Some Ss in class I was w/today weren't born yet. Didn't seem like they understood it's magnitude. #IEedchat

  • rguztec Sep 11 @ 10:49 PM EDT
    A2B: Didn't Goethe say that History was circular and it tended to repeat itself #IEedchat
  • ieedchat - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:49 PM EDT
    Here comes Q3. #IEedchat
  • mathkaveli Sep 11 @ 10:49 PM EDT
    I am far too late, sorry #IEedchat I know it's been a while, can you forgive me
  • Chrisjlara24 Sep 11 @ 10:49 PM EDT
    A2b: (1/2) It shouldn't be just remembered as history. We are still living the social ramifications from it #IEedchat
  • ieedchat - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:50 PM EDT
    Q3: Considering that none of our students remember 9/11, how should/could we change the way we memorialize this event? #IEedchat
  • jswilliams Sep 11 @ 10:50 PM EDT
    A3: Hopefully we aren't having students do a word search. #IEedchat

  • mathkaveli Sep 11 @ 10:50 PM EDT
    A0 I'm Jeremiah, math nerd, porterville, ca and I was in Las Vegas at an engineering conference when 9/11 happened #IEedchat
  • rguztec Sep 11 @ 10:51 PM EDT
    A3:I think schools should have Patriot day and have Ss and Staff come dressed in USA gear and American colors on 9/11. #IEedchat
  • mathkaveli Sep 11 @ 10:51 PM EDT
    A1 we talk about what it means, it's a great platform for life lessons like empathy and understanding and getting along #IEedchat
  • MRoarkPMP Sep 11 @ 10:51 PM EDT
    A1B)Probably good that Ss don't remember. Still so much hate against Muslims in US.Very few are prej against🇯🇵for Pearl Harbor now #ieedchat
  • AshleyMSJC5 Sep 11 @ 10:51 PM EDT
    A3: We can't treat them as fellow tramatized Americans like we did to our students 6 or 10 years ago. They weren't born. #IEedchat
  • AshleyMSJC5 Sep 11 @ 10:52 PM EDT
    A3: Yes, we need to understand 2 things: 1. These Ss don't need to work through trauma like us. 2. They need history of events. #IEedchat
  • mathkaveli Sep 11 @ 10:52 PM EDT
    a1b I feel that what I've seen that 9/11 is more of a routine we go through then an actual rememberance of its importance #IEedchat
  • MRoarkPMP Sep 11 @ 10:52 PM EDT
    A2B)Probably good that Ss don't remember. Still so much hate against Muslims in US.Very few are prej against🇯🇵for Pearl Harbor now #ieedchat
  • rguztec Sep 11 @ 10:52 PM EDT
    That's right, many people still have that sentiment towards some of our fellow Americans of the Muslim faith. #IEedchat
  • Chrisjlara24 Sep 11 @ 10:52 PM EDT
    A2b: 2/2 The fact that an entire religion has been under attack since then shows that more thought needs to go into remembrance #IEedchat
  • MathButler Sep 11 @ 10:52 PM EDT
    A3: In a world where #fakenews trends online, I would want Ss to do own research, and document a personal story from someone IRL. #IEedchat
  • Chad_Shaner Sep 11 @ 10:52 PM EDT
    A3 have Students interview someone who lived through it and share w/ the class. #IEedchat
  • mathkaveli Sep 11 @ 10:52 PM EDT
    A2 honestly I thought that would have already happened 10 years ago, I'm impressed it's still going strong #IEedchat
  • mathkaveli Sep 11 @ 10:53 PM EDT
    A2' I noticed today that even in HS class, the Ss weren't even born yet,so it's truly history for them, might be done in 5 years #IEedchat
  • MRoarkPMP Sep 11 @ 10:53 PM EDT
    True. Like we celebrate July 4th and the accompanying history #ieedchat
    In reply to @rguztec
  • ieedchat - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:54 PM EDT
    Q3b: Should we keep a special eye out for our muslim students on 9/11? Are they more likely to be bullied or feel bullied today? #IEedchat
  • mathkaveli Sep 11 @ 10:54 PM EDT
    A3 same ways I've seen things like Pearl Harbor remembered in meaningful way, we have to bring that history to life #IEedchat
  • Chrisjlara24 Sep 11 @ 10:55 PM EDT
    A3: they need the facts of the event as well as they need to be shown how society has changed so much because of it #IEedchat
  • mathkaveli Sep 11 @ 10:55 PM EDT
    Could be very powerful learning experience, tech makes this personal and viable option too #ieedchat
    In reply to @MathButler
  • MathButler Sep 11 @ 10:55 PM EDT
    A3b: This all depends on local culture. Some places, yes. Others it's a non-issue. Always support safety/shelter for all. #IEedchat
  • mathkaveli Sep 11 @ 10:55 PM EDT
    A3b I think it is important to provide Ss that we are all human, regardless of faith #IEedchat
  • AshleyMSJC5 Sep 11 @ 10:56 PM EDT
    A3b: My opinion is that our muslim Ss are vunerable to other Ss innapropriate remarks on days like this. Yes, keep an eye on them. #IEedchat
  • jswilliams Sep 11 @ 10:56 PM EDT
    A3b: Yes. We need to look out for our students. Anybody different has become a target. It needs to stop. #IEedchat
  • rguztec Sep 11 @ 10:56 PM EDT
    A3B:We should keep an eye out for all Ss, but for some reason people of the Sikh faith keep getting the worst of it. #IEedchat
  • Chrisjlara24 Sep 11 @ 10:57 PM EDT
    A3b: Yes we do We live in a world where media continues to demonize Muslims and our Ss see that So it's important to offer shelter #IEedchat
  • ieedchat - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:58 PM EDT
    Any final thoughts or suggestions on how we approach this solemn event in the future at our schools and in our classrooms? #IEedchat

    In reply to @KochCarisa
  • Chrisjlara24 Sep 11 @ 10:59 PM EDT
    FT: not only this event but we need to be teaching about other tragic events that our Ss don't really know much about #IEedchat
  • mathkaveli Sep 11 @ 10:59 PM EDT
    Let's make it a priority to teach Ss to love each other so we don't have another generation of the crazy stuff happening in US #IEedchat
