[GLN EC NTD] Topic 23/03: 9/11 – The End Of The Twin Towers


Good evening! Today, our fellow citizens, our way of life, our very freedom came under attack in a series of deliberated and deadly terrorist acts…”

It is the quotation from President G.W. Bush on the evening news lived from CNN about the attack on the World Trade Center during the morning of September 11th, 2001. More than 6000 Americans lost their lives; even more lost their families and the economy of the United States have never fully recovered after the incident. Today, twelve years had passed, we will take a look back at the darkest day of American history – our fellow members – today we’re going to talk about the collapse of the World Trade Center of New York in the day of 9/11.

2:30- 2:45: Breaking the ice
  • Making friends with others
2:45- 3:30: Discussing in pairs
  • What do you know about the 9/11 incident? Could you share with us what you know?
  • Who do you think should be blamed for the extremely high casualties of 9/11 incident? US government? Al-Qaeda? Or the lack of preparation towards the imminent threat?
  • 10 years after the incident, the US Special Forces operatives claimed their “success in revenge for the fallen victims of 9/11” by killed Osama bin Laden. What do you think about this action? Do you agree that this action would make thousands innocent lives lost in 9/11 finally rest in peace?
  • Some believe, it was not the terrorist who launch the two airplanes into the towers – but the government of the United States did. Do you agree with these people? Could you make us clear about your point?
3:30 – 3:45: Playing games

3:45- 4:30: Working in groups
  • Imagine that Keangnam Tower of Hanoi was under that such catastrophic attack like 9/11 of New York. What would you do to survive when you’re on the 60th story? Brainstorming about a way to make clear your ideas.
