- Teaching Tolerance: As the 10th anniversary of 9/11 approaches, educators must be prepared to anticipate student questions and to lead sensitive class discussions. Most importantly, they need to be mindful of who is in the room and how those students may have been impacted. Teaching Tolerance Director Maureen Costello offers tips for handling this challenging topic. "For many children this anniversary will be the first time they've really talked about 9/11 in school," Costello says. "... Plan ahead by meeting with other teachers to brainstorm likely questions and to decide what's age-appropriate."
