Welcome to our site! We have been
so excited about learning about the beginning of flight and the lives of
the Wright Brothers. Our class did so many activities. Not only
did we watch two videos-The Wright Brothers at Kitty Hawk and The
American Experience: The Wright Stuff, we read many books like The
Wright Brothers - How they invented the Air Plane, The Wright
Brothers Take Off and First To Fly. We decided that we
were so interested in flight that we went on a field trip to see the
Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden City, NY. Did you know that it
is built near Roosevelt Field Mall, which is very near Mitchell
Field? That is where Charles Lindbergh started his solo
transatlantic fight to Paris. Anyway, after we saw different kinds
of flight from 100 years ago and the present, we let our imaginations
"take flight" and we started to think about what flight would
be like 100 years from now. We possibly got some new inventions -
who knows!! We wrote about our past, present and future inventions
and drew them too. We hope you enjoy our work. We had a
blast!
