Using cardboard, paint, hot glue, and other materials, I created a Skeeball game because our challenge was to make an arcade game out of cardboard. We call our game "Hole in One." Our game will be put upstairs where anyone in the school can play it.

During this process, I learned how to make a game out of cardboard. I also got better at working with a group and coming up with good ideas when we ran into problems.

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 Knowledge Constructer because we had to make a project to show we understood the topic. We also had to use tools that we found to make our game.

A challenge I overcame on this project was getting all the cardboard to stay together. I was able to do it by using both hot glue and and duct tape. Another challenge was getting the cups to stay in. We were able to fix it by one person holding them in while another hot glued them to the ramp.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change it to be easier to play. The reason why I would change it is because lots of people tried our game and said it was too hard. I also would change the painting because it doesn't look very good.
