Alumini

Jonas was frightened as something terrible seemed to be approaching in December. He had previously seen a jet flying overhead and heard a loud blast, which unsettled him. Martin Luther King Jr.'s main problem was racial inequality, and he fought for equal rights through speeches, marches, and promoting the message that people of all skin colors should be treated the same. The story of the Titanic began with a book published years before about an unsinkable ship that sinks after hitting an iceberg, foreshadowing the real Titanic's fate. Ms. Rebecca explained that the Titanic's sinking was caused when it suffered damage from multiple iceberg collisions and took on too much water to stay afloat.
