6th grade. I understood exactly what was happening. We had the school TV tuned to the news and we were watching the first tower. Most of the kids were joking around, behaving like normal kids that see this just as an opportunity to get out of school early. Then someone yelled "there's another plane!" Everyone went silent and we all watched the second plane slam into the tower on live television. No one said a word. Our teacher started crying, and walked out of the room.
