My Family in Space

Image

Matthew was given this space suit from my dad. My dad bought it after a visit to America. My brother likes being a space cadet and pretending he is on another planet.

My dad went to an air and space museum that also had this space shuttle on display.

Look at the size of that thing! Compared to people it is huge.

This is a photograph of the Concorde. it is a supersonic passenger aircraft.

Supersonic means to go faster than the speed of sound.

My Papa has flown on the Concorde. He flew from New York to London on the 9th of July 1990. It cost $1,000 more than a business class ticket on a normal plane. He was excited to get on the plane and fascinated by the inside. He described it as a big skinny pencil as it is only 3 metres wide and 35 metres long.

If I went on the Concorde I would feel a bit nervous but happy knowing that I will be exploring new things.

My Smarts

 20130307104617360_0006

 My smarts are maths smart, nature smart and picture and space smart.  My favourite is nature smart because I love animals.  Learning my smarts is helping me to learn because then I know what I am good at.
