Book Study: A Night to Remember: Discussion Guide #2

Encourage critical thinking and support literacy development by asking questions as students read the next set of chapters from A Night to Remember. Featuring comprehension, analysis, and connection questions about chapters 5–8 of Walter Lord’s classic account of the final hours of the Titanic's voyage, this two-page discussion guide invites readers to examine how—and which—passengers were evacuated into the lifeboats. Learners will explore the actions of passengers as they tried to reach safety, the mood among passengers aboard the Titanic once the last regular lifeboat departed, and the way society reacted to the disaster.
