On Monday 8th January, Year 2 welcomed Divergent Drama to Great Binfields to lead us in some learning about our new topic - the Titanic!

The day began with the children discovering some key information and dates about the famous ship. During this time we were given some items that represented passengers from the different classes. Some children then acted out scenes that would have been common on board, such as eating in the 1st class dining room, working in the boiler room and even engineering the Titanic before it set sail from Belfast. 

During the afternoon, the children enjoyed beginning our new book 'Samson's Titanic' and found out even more facts about the Titanic. We were really impressed with the questions that the children asked and the discussions that were had. We are looking forward to exploring this topic even more over the coming weeks.
