            <text>I was in school in 3rd period reading class. Then the teacher turned on the T.V. and I saw both planes crash into the two World Trade Center Towers. I saw the 747 slam into the Twin Towers.Then we heard about that another plane crashed into the pentagon. Then we all knew that we were being attacked. All of a sudden we saw one of the towers collapes. Then the other fell. That is my history of the 9/11 tradegy. </text>

            <text>I think that all the people that lost their live because another country was jealous of us should be remembered. Also all the family that lost part of their family should be remembered. Also the policemen and firefighters should be remembered because they protected the prople and cleaned up the mess. Finally all the people that worked in the world trade center. That is who I think should be remembered.</text>
