Then we learned about the sequence of events that led to the sinking of the ship.

What did Captain Edward Smith do?

We have been practicing morse code and we can all make the SOS signal in Morse Code. Have a look at our class sending out the SOS signal!

What would we bring onto the Titanic?

Then we thought about what we would bring if we were leaving on the Titanic to start a new life.
