Lesson Plan: Crisis Reveals Character: Examining Responses on 9/11
Grades 9-12
On the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, teachers at the Children’s Discovery Center in the World Trade Center complex were caring for 28 young children when the terrorist attacks began. The teachers worked together to evacuate the children and lead them to safety. In this lesson, students examine how individuals and communities responded to the events of Sept. 11, 2001, and will investigate what people’s choices and actions may reveal about human behavior during times of crisis.
