Reflection
Using Popsicle sticks, cardboard, hot glue, and fabric, I created a Barbie house out of cardboard. The reason we did this is because we thought is would be a fun project. We also haven't seen anybody make something like this in this class so we wanted to do it.
During this process, I learned that this isn't an easy project there was a lot of trial and error. Another thing we learned is that we get more done if we have a person doing small tasks for us. We also learned that making things out of cardboard is easier than cardboard.
The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Empowered learner because I set a goal to get it done before the quarter is over and I achieved it. I also set a goal to make it look nice and I achieved it.
A challenge I overcame on this project was getting the dresser to work. It wasn't working well because I messed up on the dresser and I kept making new drawers. I was able to overcome it by making a new dresser and making a better drawer for it.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the kitchen. The reason why I would change it is because I didn't have the enough time to do better things to it. I would also change the attic the reason why I would do this is because it didn't look great and it was pretty empty.
