They go to dinner and at there table is a little girl. In the middle of the meal she starts crying because she missed her dad. She ran off to her room, after she was gone Barry saw a handkerchief that belonged to her. Barry took it to her room.
Kirsten
Two of the passengers go to the captain because they think there are not enough lifeboats.
One night Barry goes for a walk with Pegeen and all of a sudden they here a scraping noise. They go and check it out to find a ice berg at the side of the ship.
Pegeen tries to get off the ship but there were no lifeboats left so Barry pushed her over the side and followed her. In the morning another came and saved them!!!
Kirsten
The ice-berg that hit the Titanic most likely came from Greenland. Warm weather caused huge chunks of ice from Greenland's glaciers to break off.

Captain of the Titanic, Edward J. Smith made the mistake of trying to set a record of getting across the North Atlantic Ocean and was going as fast as 22 knots! It was dark outside and his crew wasn’t paying good attention. Once they saw that the iceberg was coming straight at them, the crew immediately ordered the titanic to move off course.
How the Titanic Sank
Tyler
But they were to late and the Titanic hit the iceberg and it began to sink. The bow went under water first, and eventually that half of the ship broke off and sank 250 miles under water. The stern was floating on the water for a little while until it sank under water like the stern bow.
