we will create types

What unique qualities will your project have?

I will build the kite from scratch in the way I want to

Day 1

We looked for ideas and picked strawbees

Day 2

We got out the strawbees and figured out how to use them

Day 3

We figured out that we were gonna make kites and started building them

Day 4

Reflection

Using strawbees, I created a kite because I could use the way we designed them in the future.
During this process, I learned How to make a kite with the right balance and aerodynamics.
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 Innovative designer because I designed a kite the way I wanted to.
A challenge I overcame on this project was my kite ripping. I was able to do it by retying different paper to it.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change How I designed my kite. The reason why I would change it is because It ripped and kept flying backwards.

My project connects to the engineering design CTE program at Hastings High School.
My project connects to careers in flight engineer because I designed a kite that could fly.
