On Tuesday the 21st of September, our class (MLH) had a kit set about Jean Batten and her medal. If you don't know who Jean Batten is, she was the first woman to fly solo from England to New Zealand and back. The kit set had different codes that you had to crack to find the next clue, which led to a photo of the FAI (Fédération Aéronautique Internationale) medal that Jean Batten won for flying solo from England to New Zealand, which if you put a mirror over it the words spell: The end is the beginning, and the beginning is the end. We also made Gull and Moth (planes that Jean Batten flew) paper planes, to see which plane flies best, and we also made Buzz-planes, which is the end of a toothbrush with a buzz monitor, a battery wires, and LED lights, if the LED lights make contact with the battery they light up, and if the wires make contact with the battery they vibrate, which makes the whole toothbrush head vibrate, which make the bristles of the toothbrush move forward!
I enjoyed the Jean Batten day because I learnt lots of interesting facts about Jean Batten.
