Post your memory of that day.
Here is mine: I was in the 5th grade, I think we were on the history subject (ironically) and I remember a teacher coming in to tell our teacher to bring a T.V. in so she could see. Not such a good idea alot of students were getting afraid in class and you could just hear some silence from our teacher of confusion.
Not too later on we were being released from school early. #NeverForget

When my uncle touches my aunt
I go to the barber shop
And I take the scissors from the counter
And I go to my aunt and uncles house
And then when they're touching each other
I cut off my uncles hand so they're not touching each other
And then I pick up his hand from the floor
And then I bring it to the zoo
And when I'm at the zoo, I bring it to the lion exhibit
And then, I take the hand and I wave to the lions with the hand that came from my uncle
And then the lion waves back to me and I smile
And then my ant comes to the zoo with my uncle
And they ask me to give the hand back.
And then I said "no" and they said " ok".
i came home from school and turned the tv on to watch pokemon but every tv channel was on the news (this was in uk too so you knew it was a big deal). didn't really understand it at the time but learnt soon what it was all about
I was in 3rd grade and one of the other teachers ran in and told my teacher to turn on the tv. As 3rd graders we didn't really understand what was going on. We saw the second plane hit and it was very scary. I didn't really understand what happened until I went home and my dad had to have that talk. Very sad day.
Honestly don't remember much I was only 6 but we got out early tbh I don't think I understood what happened too young but I remember the teacher turning on the radio
Laying in bed listening to my mother's radio, which was on every morning. Sounded like a bomb in New York. We clued in that something big was going down, so we went downstairs and watched on TV as the second tower was hit. At school we watched coverage in every class, but after lunch the teachers figured it was enough and we carried on with a sober normalcy.
painting in pre-school, weird because I was very young but i do remember. I lived on an Air Force base near Boston at the time, we all got let out obviously.
I just remember traffic and my mom freaking out but that's about it
My husband was in the hospital and he called and woke me up and told me to turn on the TV. I was talking to him on the phone when the 2nd plane hit the twin towers. I knew immediately that it was a terrorist attack. I also knew immediately that we would be striking back and that more people were going to die and we would be at war with other countries. It was so strange to go to work and no planes were seen in the air in the days following that attack. Our country was forever changed that day.
I was at home because i think i was 18. I remember being angry as hell. I was mad and thinking how dare they attack us? How dare they attack the usa. On our turf. Man I was pissed off. I was scared. My nephew was at headstart and i remember wanting him home. I remember being afraid.
I was 14 then and in 8th grade. I had just gotten to my first period class at school that was called Career Investigations. The teacher had the tv on when I got to class and we just watched the news for the whole class period.
I was a kid like 6-8 don't really recall but I just remember the moment.
I walked by my grandparents and everyone gathered around the TV, it seemed like they were watching a movie because of the building crashing and everyone freaking out. I didn't understand at the time but after growing up and learning about what happened it was pretty scary as the world was shook, I think it was an inside job after reading into conspiracy theories
i was in kindergarten. i remember we went to music class and they told us something very horrible had happened. we spent the rest of class learning the national anthem. that's a day i will never forget
I was teaching in va and the teachers gathered in the hall to discuss this situation....i didnt turn the tv on because my students were 6yrs old. I remember hearing about the third plane and frantically trying to call my parents who live 30 min from there and I couldnt get in touch with them. Then i remember going home and watching it for dayssssss and my thought was I didnt understand how the U.S. could let this happen.....like I thought we as a country were more aware and for the first time in my life I did not feel safe in the United States.
i was at my grandma's daycare at 1.5 years old. My mom was working in the tallest building in Illinois OUTSIDE of Chicago so she panicked cause they wouldn't let her leave. Eventually she picked me up and her and my dad watched the news while I played.
