Summer stood at the front of the classroom, waiting until all of her students assembled before speaking. "Good morning everyone. My name is Summer Pitt and this is Famous Shipwrecks of the Deep," she began, smiling warmly. "As the title says, we'll be focusing on famous shipwrecks of the deep. These wrecks are from all different times in maritime history. Most are well known to historians and marine scientists. We'll be discussing them. Some of the causes of the wrecks are undetermined. I'd like to see if you can come up with a theory as to why the ships met the fate they did. It'll be fun to see what you theorize."

Summer paused, pulling out the syllabus and passing it out to her students. "Today we're going to keep it simple. I'd like you to introduce yourselves -- your name, grade and one shipwreck you'd like to learn about. If you can't think of one, that's okay. You can just tell me why you're interested in this class."

She was looking forward to their responses. "Also, Ariel, I'd like to see you after class, if you have the time."
