** __The Titanic__  **


 * The Titanic hit the water for the first time. 100,000 people were watching the launch. The Titanic sets on her maiden voyage and also her last. Her first stop was to in England. Then she went to Cherbourg to pick up more passengers. They also stop off at Queenstown, France. Then they we off to their actual destination New York City. **


 * Then the Titanic reached the Atlantic Ocean and there were heaps of warnings of “Ice ahead.” But the operator on the Titanic told the people on the other ships to be quiet, because the Titanic could withstand anything... **
 * Then at about 11.40 PM, Frederick Fleet was up in the Crowsnest of the Titanic and spotted something in the water. The RMS Titanic was going at full speed and was forced to turn at the sight of the iceberg ahead. **


 * The RMS Titanic didn’t slow down or turn fast enough, the iceberg ripped a hole in the starboard side. At 12.20 AM, lifeboats were being lowered. First class passengers we first in. All the women and children were asked to get into the lifeboats first. **


 * I haven't quite finished it yet but i will in time. **
