I personally don’t understand why people are sent into space when there are plenty of things ‘at home’ (aka – on our own planet) that are more important.

Yes, I understand that feeling. I can’t give an accurate figure but a great deal more than 100,000 people a day succumb to death through malnutrition and starvation on the planet. On the other hand the benefits to humankind as by-products of the space program are incalculable.

The teacher from next door rushed in and I turned on the TV and saw the second hit live. I was dumbfounded and astonished. Then the assistant principals came around and made us turn off the TV’s because we were supposed to be teaching. Can you imagine ?!

I was 12 when the Challenger disaster happened, but I still remember it so clearly. My sister and I were home from school because of snow. Even at that young age, I knew that I had just witnessed something so terribly tragic that I would remember it for the rest of my life.

My granddaughter is Haitian, Cuban and Italian mix. We did this theme last year for African American History month and took third place from the school’s entire grades 1-3 !
