The book contains actual images from the ship and there is an activity where the children can make their own Titanic and sink it. The author also found actual testimony from Marconi himself who gave witness at the subsequent enquiry and then there is the unsinkable Molly Brown. All in all a fascinating approach to this historical event. The purpose of this book is to provide a Teaching and Learning Solution which uses the Titanic tragedy as a vehicle for children to explore modern life.

For instance the book covers 'group think' and how it applied to the 'unsinkable' ship and connects that with online bullying, a real 21st Century problem. It is ideal for teachers of primary/prep and lower secondary pupils. * Ideal resource for primary/prep schools with a free cd of pages to print off available. * Contains comprehensive teacher notes. * Topical and thought provoking. * Cross curricular in approach.
