Titanic teaching resources

100 years on from the sinking of the Titanic and another maritime disaster has just occurred as an almsot ironic reminder to us all, as we are about to commemorate the centenary.

While designing the teaching resources for Pencil Street, we did wonder if any family had been unfortunate enough to have had relatives who had been onboard the Titanic in 1912 and had also had any current family members onboard the Costa Concordia.

We hope the Pencil Street Titanic resources are stimulating and thought-provoking - whilst approaching the topic in a sensitive manner suitable for primary school children.
