Creating a Historical Newspaper!

The Titanic newspapers are the culminating project for our informational reading and writing units. Each newspaper is completed by the students from start to finish. They choose the name of their paper, write their "screaming headline," write a summary article, interview (from Titanic Day) and interesting facts. They have also written a letter to the editor expressing their opinion on a Titanic related topic. What results is a great project and a "souvenir"of all their hard work.
