Day 2: Today we finished making the base of The White House
Day 3: Today we worked on the walls of the White House
Day 4: Today we worked on the roof, which was very challenging.
Day 5: Today we knocked down the White House and put all of the Keva Planks away.

Using Keva Planks, I created the White House. I created the White House out of Keva Planks because I wanted a to have a challenge to build something complicated. I also created the White House out of Keva Planks because I wanted to make something with my friends.
During this process I learned many things. I learned how to make complicated things out of Keva Planks. I also learned how to make a roof out of Keva Planks.
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 Global Collaborator. My project ties to Golabal Collaborator because I uploaded my video to my website so the world can see it.
A challenge I overcame on this project was making the roof. I was able to do it by stacking the plank in a specific pattern. I was also able to do it by getting help from my partners.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change How the roof looks. The reason why I would change it is because does not look like the actual White house roof. I would also chance how flimsy the walls are. The reason I would change it is because the walls fell over easily.
