JFK

["Sandra P. Phillips" <sppp@STRAUSS.UDEL.EDU>]

Sandra, I remember it in very general terms. It was my second year of
teaching, as a teacher-librarian. We had no TV in the classroom at the
time. An announcement came over the loud speaker that the President had
been shot. We were in a tenth grade English class. Everyone became very
quiet and was full of sadness for the rest of the day as they followed teh
events.

Hello everyone,  One of our 8th grade social studies teachers is planning
a discussion next week about the assassination of John Kennedy.  As part
of his unit, he has asked his students to ask their grandparents, older
friends, or teachers what they remember about the day JFK died. (Their
parents too, if they were old enough at that time to remember!) He would
appreciate hearing from any of you or anyone in your school who remembers
where they were on that day, what they were doing, etc.  Your messages
will be shared with all our students in a special JFK display.  Thanks
for your help.  sppp@strauss.udel.edu
