What unique qualities will your project have?
We will be making a controller to control snake game.
Day 1. We filled in the list of 10 good ideas and our planning questions.
Day 2. We went on the makey makey app and we looked at how we could create things and how it works.
Day 3.We watched the videos on how to wire it on the makey makey website.
Day 4: We tested the wires to see how they go on and how they work.
Day 5:We got all the wires connected and we tested it on the snake game and it worked.
This is the back of the makey makey were we connected all of the wires
This is the video of our controller in action playing the snake game.
Using the Makey Makey , I created a controller for snake game because I thought it would be cool to make the makey makey control my computer and play the game .
During this process, I learned how to connect all of the wires to the makey makey and make it so both lights go green so I know its working and I learned how it works and ways to use it.
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 goals and achieved them with what i wanted to make and how I wast trying to get it to work.
A challenge I overcame on this project was when I was trying to figure out how to connect all of the wires so that both of the green lights were on so i knew it was working. I was able to do it by asking for help on were to put each wire.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change what project I did and I would make it more challenging. The reason why I would change it is because my project was very simple and I would want to add more.
