Remembering 9/11

There are many thoughts and opinions about how we should teach about the events of September 11, 2001. Larry Ferlazzo, who I have mentioned before, has a "Best of" list for teaching about 9/11. If you are looking for resources you should definitely look at his list.

If you haven't figured it out by now, I am a fan of dogs. So I am most interested in the search and rescue dogs from 9/11. There are a few books out on the topic that offer amazing pictures of these dedicated canines. One that I own is Dog Heroes of September 11th: A Tribute to America's Search and Rescue Dogs by Nona Kilgore Bauer. You can purchase the book through many retailers.




Perhaps you might find this video from explore.org a touching tribute to these dogs.
