One ting that I remeber from that day was the massive amounts of students that left schoolbecuase of the huge scare
ReplyDeleteOne thing that I remember about 9/11 is that when I got home and turned on the TV the attacks was on every channel that they were terriost attacks.
ReplyDeletei remember asking the teachers what happened and no one would tell anyone. probably to prevent scares. one teacher, though i cant recall who, put the cnn on and it showed a live video of what was happening. when the towers fell i remember watching a massive cloud of dust overtake all of these people watching. i also remember watching people jumping out of the windows of the wtc.
ReplyDeleteI dont remember much because i was only seven. But i do remember alot of kids leaving school and teachers getting all worked up but yet trying to keep calm so the students wouldnt get all worked up.
ReplyDeleteThere are a couple things I remember; like a lot of my friends got picked by their parents, and we sat and watched the news of what was going on on TV. I didn't comprehend a lot though, cause I thought it was kind of like a video game.
ReplyDeleteI was in third grade 9-11-01. I don't remember much except that I had no idea what was going on. I was with two bestfriends and I didn't care what difference it made if I stayed longer with them or not. i was having fun.
ReplyDeleteMy mom remembers watching the news and thinking it was a movie. she realized the WTC really was burning down, after she watched Flight 93 crash in Pennsylvania on the news.
I don't really remember my mom talking to me about anything that happened because we didn't know anyone from New York or the Pentagon. So it never really impacted my family any.
I remember my teacher telling us that somthing hit the World Trade center, and most of the parents were picking thier kids up.
ReplyDeletei was in the second grade sitting on the floor and the teacher knew something was going on because of the expression on her face.Well after school was over i went home and my mom and dad was watching the news.I sat down on the couch and they told me that planes have crashed into the buliding i didnt think of nothing about it because i was little i really didnt know anything back then.that all i remember from that day.
ReplyDeleteone thing i remember about the 9-11 in third grade is the teacherturned on the tv we all watched it for a little bit the alot of people started crying. couple min after that the teachers started getting alot of phone calls from the parents saying they are comin to pick up the kids from school because they didnt want them to watch the tv. thats all i remember.
ReplyDeletewhat I remember the most about thayt day was how confused everyone was. i remember watching it on tv, and then watching the first plane hitting the tower. i was so young and didnt really know what was going on but i remember being in tears then next thing i know my mom was at school to pick me up. i was so crowded with worried moms. my dad came home early that day and then we went to my aunts house and stayed there. i didnt go to school the next 2 days. i remember when i did go back we talked about it though.
ReplyDeleteThe one major thing i remember of that day is Nick Wolfe said, "Did you here about the plane crash?" I replied, "No i didn't." when i got home it was all over the news and i just remember watiching the towers crash
ReplyDeleteI really do not remember much because at the time I was at St. Matthew's school. So i did not hear anything till I got home and the t.v. was on. I watched the first tower go down right when I was coing in the door.
ReplyDeletei was in second grade when the 9/11/01 occured. i can rember my gram comming to school and picking me and my brother up and saying when we get home go straight inside and wait for her. So we did. When we got inside we say the tv had a picture of the WTC. Then our momther walked in and said their was an attack in New York, and Washington that is why we were picked up at school.
ReplyDeleteI remember that day was really scary for everyone. I remember watching something on tv I dont really remember what. Some kids were crying, and then next thing i know my mom was in the main office picking me and my brother up from school. I was so confused that day I didnt know what was going on. when we got home we picked my sister up from my moms friends house and went to my aunts and stayed there. I remember not going to school for 2 days.
ReplyDeleteI was in second grade... Mr. Mitchels class. he turned on the tv and we started to watch the news. Him and the teacher next door to us dont remember her name open up the wall that divided the room. well it was practically recess for us kids bc we didnt really get what was goin on. while him and the next door teacher discused with each other parents were calling and getting there kids out of school. I was like the 5th one to leave out of my class and then as i went home my sister theresa was telling me what happend. It was the topic at the dinner table for the next couple of weeks.

I was in second grade, but i'm not sure what class I was in. I remember my mom getting me and my sister both out of school and I kept asking her what was going on but she just kept telling me we'd talk about it at home. Once we finally got home and my father got there we all sat down and they told us what was going on. My whole family talked about it for weeks.

Ah, Its hard to remember. I do remember a lot of being scared. I myself really didnt think much about it. The teacher let us watch the news, just watch all of it and i didnt understand a thing that was going on! I just watched in mild amazement, thinking maybe it was a dream, some action movie, or all a big joke. It was all so weird... I remember going through the rest of the day without really thinking too much on it.
ReplyDeleteI remember I was in second grade, Mrs. Yoder's class and she had the television on that morning when all of a sudden, we heard something about the World Trade Centers being hit by two hijacked planes. We then dropped what we were doing and just sat there and watched everything that was happening. Everyone began panicking and worrying that the school was going to be hit next by planes, some of the other students were even crying. The second my dad heard about the WTCs getting hit over the radio, he left work and came to school and got me. When I got home my mom just got back from a doctors and was all confused as to why I was home from school so early because she had no idea about what was happening until my dad turned on the news and it was flashing across the televsion. My moms face was so shocked and it was just so unbelievable. I honestly had no idea what was going on so I remember asking tons of questions, and started being afraid of planes. I have a very vivid memory of that horrible day.
