A fifth-grade teacher is working to convey the significance of the September 11, 2001, terror attacks to her students. The teacher, Martha "Marty" Runzer, has a personal connection to the events, having been a former United Airlines flight attendant. She was on maternity leave when the attacks occurred and watched as names from the hijacked airliners appeared on television.
Runzer's experience includes a personal connection to United Airlines Flight 93, which crashed into a field in Pennsylvania after passengers and crew fought the hijackers. Further details about her experience and how she teaches this history to her students are available from the source.
The challenge of teaching this history to students who were not alive at the time of the attacks is a significant one, and Runzer's approach is part of a larger effort to educate younger generations about this important event.
