‘ISIS’ vs. ‘ISIL’ vs. ‘Islamic State’: The political importance of a much-debated acronym
CLICK HERE TO WATCH STUDENT REMEMBERING 9/11
THE PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE OF 9/11 Today we reflected on 9/11 and tried to make sense of the issues surrounding our nation today. We looked at a video of when President George W. Bush found out that the towers were hit as he reflected on the past. We also watched a video of a girl who was a student during 9/11 in New York City. She remembers where she was and what happened on that day. Finally, we watched a video to help us understand who ISIS or ISIL is and where they came from. While ISIS/ISIL was not a focus on today - the issues surrounding our nation and our course of action is confusing unless we take a closer look. If you want to know why ISIL is being used instead of ISIS. I have also attached the video of President Obama's speech to the nation last night too.
