Now to something important. Did you know today is a holiday? Click the link to learn about Patriot Day.
We are learning about this in TechEx because the events on September 11 were one of the first disasters to be recorded with so much technology (cameras, phones, video). For the first time, people were watching something like this live and hearing from people that were right there.
Look at some pictures from the day below:
Here is a newscast about September 11:
Here is a read-along book with lots more information about the day:
The twin towers were rebuilt with one building, called One World Trade Center, and also called the Freedom Tower. Read more about it. See it in Google Earth.
Patriot Day is a good day to remember all the brave people in our country, in the past and today, that have helped others during difficult times.
