Korman, Gordon
2012
\"Honestly, it's a blast. I'm having such fun.\" Her students are creating Titanic-based dramas, writing \"radio news reports\", an art teacher is compiling student drawings for a composite creation, quieter students are using calligraphy kits to write notes to tuck in bottles, younger ones are using Duplo to re-create what they read and in the evening, they chat about it online. Markham's Karthik Ganapathiraju, 10, is building a Popsicle-stick ship. The quiet boy has taken a leadership role, co-ordinating classmates to help make Plasticine furniture, Lego passenger and construction-paper rooms. Last Friday, he asked his parents to take him to the library after school, where high school students had offered to help him drill holes to add Christmas lights to his vessel. Rahulan Muraleetharan, 12, also went to the library at recess to talk about the book. Students will be able to \"meet\" author [Gordon Korman] via a webcast held at one of the schools. As Richmond Hill librarian Michelle Weinberg put it, \"the children are taking to this idea like a ship to water\". This weekend, the manager of children's services will invite members of her library's Lego club to build models of the Titanic and see whose vessel floats. Christopher Ghokasian, has scooped out his Lego pieces for the project. The eight-year-old student has been eyeing the \"big flat things\" in the Lego bin for the bottom of his boat, \"and I'm not going to make the top too heavy so it won't sink, like the real Titanic did\". Organizers hope families will catch the spirit, boosted by worldwide media marking the Titanic's 100th anniversary.
