Cooper Seventh Graders Learn About Titanic with Unique Experience
Students at Cooper Junior High learned about the most infamous maritime disaster through a Titanic Museum set up in the school’s library. Reading teacher Kat Israeloff created a museum experience for her seventh-grade reading students using reproduced paper memorabilia associated with the RMS Titanic. Replicas such as boarding passes, photos of passengers, receipts, maps of the ship, newspaper articles, advertising flyers, sheet music and dinner menus were displayed for students to view.
As they would in a real museum, students perused this realistic material about the great tragedy at their leisure.
“There were crew passes -- like first class and second class -- that said things about the crew,” seventh-grader Mathias Castro said. “The crew passes put it on a personal level for me.”
