 The 9/11 curriculum was announced Tuesday in New York City. It will
be taught in pilot programs this year in New York City, California,
New Jersey, Alabama, Indiana, Illinois and Kansas.Former New York
Mayor Rudy Giuliani was among those interviewed by the educators who
developed the curriculum.
Giuliani says there's a natural tendency to forget the events as
the years go by. But he says the threat of terrorism still exists,
and it's important for children to develop an understanding of 9/11.
He says this curriculum offers a sensitive way to do that.
