On April 14, 1912, RMS Titanic hit an iceberg at 11.40pm off Newfoundland. If you need to, you can find out more factual details at Encyclopædia Britannica or any other reputable site. Based on what you learn, write a poem from the point of view or the ship herself as in “Titanic Speaks.” This will give you an opportunity to imagine people and events that you may not know from the historical accounts.
