This three lesson unit teaches 5th grade students about the Titanic. In the first lesson, the media specialist reads excerpts from books about the Titanic to spark interest. Those books are then loaned to the classroom. The second lesson shows a video about the ship's discovery. The third lesson uses a media specialist created jog with primary sources about the Titanic for students to explore. The goal is for students to read the 25 books required and learn about the famous shipwreck.
