The Amazing Jean Batten Day
Last week our class learnt about this amazing New Zealander called Jean Batten. We were all in our buzz groups and we had to find out some things about her of her cat, but I'm telling you about the day that we did on Tuesday. We did so many things so I will tell you about my favourite things I did.
The first thing I loved was making paper planes. The reason we did that was because Jean Batten is a flyer she was the first lady to fly from England to New Zealand. So we got given a sheet of paper that would say Moth or Gull (those are 2 types of planes that she tried) so we made those planes with the sheet and instructions. I had the moth I found it really hard to make. After that we went to 3 stations and in the end the Gull paper plane was the best for flying. Making it was so fun though.
Next the fun Mayday bit. So we were in groups and in the group that I was in we had 5 people that means that we only got 4 Mayday sheets. We had to try to get to the finish line before the other team and if you feel off your whole team would have to go back to the start that happened once in our team. Our last player was the last on the mayday sheets he jumped and landed the littlest bit away from the line and we bet 3:16 seconds we got 2:57 seconds so we came first because our teachers let us have the win. We were so happy it was fun too.
Those were my favourites but there was still so many more fun ones.
