Remembering and honoring the Heroes of 9/11

It is very important to teach kids about events in history, both the good and bad. Yesterday we read the book, titled: September 12th, We knew everything would be all right!
We talked about the amazing heroes of 9/11-police officers, firefighters, first responders, and everyday men and women. We also talked about how thankful we are for our military men and women who protect our country and keep us safe. Students colored their own American flag and we painted a class American flag with their handprints!
