Day 2: UP IN THE AIR
Activity 1: Flying Solo
Jean Batten was a famous aviator (pilot) who was born in Rotorua, New Zealand in 1909. In the 1930s she made several record-breaking solo flights (on her own) across the world. In fact, she was the first person to fly solo from England to New Zealand - a huge achievement! She also flew a number of long solo flights between England and Australia/Brazil. When she flew, she always took a sulk dress with her so that she could look beautiful at the parties she attended upon her arrival.
For this activity, we had to compare and contrast Jean and Amelia, we had to include at least three similarities and three differences between them.
I hope you learned something today, please have a great day!

ReplyDeleteHi Lyan,
Great use of a Venn Diagram! Jean and Amelia were certainly two talented pilots! I really like how you have also included more detail above you diagram, this really engages us readers and allows us to learn more about these two-amazing people!
I had no idea that Jean had planned her flight while she was still studying! That would have been a very busy time of her life. Do you want to fly planes when you are older? What are your hobbies?

Hi Gabe, thank you for your lovely comment, flying planes would be a cool thing to do but I'm actually afraid of heights. My hobbies are, dancing, reading, drawing,photography and playing the piano. Once again thank you for your lovely comment, I hope you have a great day!
