Today I did my first Summer Learning Journey activity! I had 3 different types of planes. A Plane, Hoop, and a Ring Glider. Making the rings of the Ring glider was the trickiest bits for me the first time I did it it was too small. The Ring Glider was the heavest however it went the farthest. The Hoop didnt go as far. The Plane was alright but it didnt go the farthest. My favourite one was the Ring glider. I enjoyed making the Hoop it was very easy. If you are having troubles with making a straw you could use a pencil or something thats shaped like a straw. Also dont put too much tape on the straw because that will make it heavy and it wont go that far. I think the hoop didnt go as far as the others because the air went throw the hole and it was too light so it fell down. If you would like to make one here is a link.
Very impressive paper planes, and great tip about the tape. I wonder how they would fly outside in wind?

I was impressed by your concise and well thought out blog post as you clearly explained your task and shared your experience. It is Great to hear that you enjoyed the activity. I really enjoyed your tips about the tape which will be very helpful to fellow bloggers. I also enjoyed your analysis of why you think the hoop did not travel so far.
Thank you for the clear images of the plane, glider and hoop. I can see you have put alot of effort into creating them.
It is good to hear that the ring glider was your favorite. Why was it your favorite one?
Well done Mina!
