PERFECT FOR

- Government and current-issues classes covering terrorism, emergency response and homeland security policy
- Sub plans and movie days on or near September 11, where a full-period documentary plus a structured worksheet is the whole lesson
ALSO WORKS FOR
- Emergency sub plans - leave the film and this worksheet; a sub needs no prep and no subject knowledge.
- First week of school - a low-stakes, self-contained assignment while routines are still settling.
- Movie day with accountability - students have something to complete while the documentary runs.
- No-prep days - print and go, or assign the PDF digitally.
BEFORE YOU SHOW IT
This documentary is survivor testimony and carries distressing footage and firsthand accounts of the September 11 attacks. Preview it before you show it, and decide for your own classroom what to set up in advance or skip. The worksheet stays with the factual and historical record -- the timeline, the towers and the evacuation, the emergency response, the decisions people made -- and no question asks a student to describe injury or death.
WHERE TO WATCH
The film aired on the History Channel on September 11, 2026. It streams at play.history.com and in the History app, where the player asks you to sign in with your TV provider.
