Summer Learning Journey Challenge 1 Day 2
For this activity, compare and contrast these two aviators. You could use this Venn diagram. On your blog, share your comparison between the two women and be sure to include at least three similarities and three differences between these two aviators.
For this challenge today we had to compare Jean Batten and Amelia Earhart on a Venn Diagram.
I read these Texts and did the Diagram of it.
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 silk dress with her so that she could look beautiful at the parties she attended upon her arrival.
Amelia Earhart was an American aviator who lived at about the same time as Jean Batten. Like Jean, she also flew solo. In fact, she was the first female aviator to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. She flew all the way from Canada to Northern Ireland on her own without stopping. In 1937, Amelia Earhart attempted to circumnavigate (go right around) the world. Unfortunately, the flight ended in tragedy when she disappeared near Howland Island, about halfway between Australia and Hawaii. She was never found.
Hii again!
ReplyDeleteNice work on getting three differences and similarites for Jean and Amelia! Nice work. This reminds me of when I did something similar to this in my class last year. Maybe next time you could add some images of Amelia and Jean. Good luck on doing more beautiful posts in the future!
Blog you later,

Talofa Adriana,
ReplyDeleteKa pai for doing week one, day two, activity one! What was your favourite part about doing this activity? I love how you’ve made a clear and colourful venn diagram, and the information you’ve provided below about Jean Batten or Amelia Earhart was really interesting and had great detail. I can see you’ve put a lot of effort into this activity!
They were both pretty amazing women weren’t they!? I love that fact about Jean, that she would take a silk dress with her on her flights, so that she could look beautiful wherever she landed! That’s definitely something I would do if I was record-breaking aviator! :)
Have you been on a plane before? If you have, where did you go? Do you think you’d like to fly a plane if you had the chance to?
Have a fantastic day and thanks for creating a great post.
Eliza :)
