Our Group

Here is the 4th and 5th grade on their fieldtrip on the Titanic's stern. We went to The Henry Ford museum to see the special IMAX movie called "Titanica". The movie was about scientists that go down to the ocean floor, to find things from the Titanic.They found things like a stand that held a beautiful statue. After the IMAX film we went into the museum. At the Titanic exhibit we got "Boardingpasses" of real passengers. So at the end of the exhibit you could see if your person survived or died.We also walked around the museum and saw many other intresting things.

Iceberg ahead!

As the Titanic scraped against the iceberg it woke Captain Smith, while the sixth Officer Moody took note of the time of the collision, Wireless operator Jack Phillips is still at work, sending greeting messages from passengers. But maybe if the look outs have been given binoculars they might have spotted the iceberg earlier.
