[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was a moment of silence and the principal said something but that was it.  It isn’t related to my content area in HS.  A lot of historical things happen on different days and we don’t talk about them.  None of these students were born when in happened.

In our version of homeroom, one of the students asked me if I was teaching on that day.  I was, in this area and I told them what that day was like for me here.  They asked a lot of questions but mostly were fascinated by the differences in the times.  No, no one was texting because no students had cells. I didn’t own a cell phone.   The internet was not streaming non stop videos 25/7 of live feeds. We were not using laptops in class all of the time.  Social media was not blowing up our phones with alerts.  They can’t imagine that and their questions involved more around those things.  [/quote]

That’s very similar to the discussion we had in the staff lounge at lunch. There were probably at least 3 or 4 teachers who were preschool age and a couple more who weren’t yet born. [/quote]
