Activity 2: One Small Step for Man [4 points]
Neil Armstrong was an American astronaut and engineer. In 1969, Neil and his team of astronauts flew to the moon in a spacecraft called Apollo 11. When they arrived, Neil got out of the spacecraft and walked on the moon. He is the first person in history to walk on the moon! As Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon, he famously said, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”
As you can imagine, landing on the moon is a very dangerous task. Many things can go wrong, and a number of astronauts have died attempting to land on the moon. Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins (the three astronauts on Apollo 11) must have been extremely brave.
I always imagine that walking on the moon must be like jumping on the trampoline! Do you like jumping on a trampoline? My daughter Laila loves it!
I feel joyful and happy weird and tingly almost like im flying
i flout among it all as i watch the world spin before me knowing my family are under me smiling proud of what i have become.
Kia ora Courtney,
ReplyDeleteThank you for doing week one, day two, activity two! I thought your poem was simple but effective! I’m sure Neil Armstrong would’ve felt really proud, being the first man on the moon! If you had the chance to go to the moon, would you go?
I also like the image you’ve added to your post - next time you use images from the internet, make sure you attribute the image - this just means copy the link from where you found the image and put it next to the image on the post, so we can see exactly where you found it :)
Here is a great example of image attribution (the little links under the images!) https://wisadrianah1.blogspot.com/2019/12/making-racket.html
Keep up the blogging!
