Sept. 11

I was in 4th grade on Sept. 11th, 2001. I remember it being a normal day and my morning had been moving the way it normally did. I'm at school and like 5 minutes after the tragedy, my principal came on the intercom and announced that a plane had hit the world trade center. My teacher got nervous and rushed to her phone because her sister was working in the building. Because we were in 4th grade, we really did not know to much of what to think about what had happened. We did not realize the magnitude of it until my teacher comes back into the room crying. Her sister was in the building when it got hit. All i could do was feel sympathy for other families because i knew that they would be feeling the same way my teacher was feeling. After we found out, we had an immediate moment of silence then my principal prayed over the intercom that it was not too many people hurt.
