8P3 Cardboard Design

This is a picture of the track in the process of it being built

This is a picture of the seats in the race track.

This is a picture of the track after it was finished.

Using cardboard, I created a race track because I want to race the Spero minis around the track.
During this process, I learned how to use a hot glue gun and how to make a track with 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 Innovative Designer because I designed something using cardboard.
A challenge I overcame on this project was using the hot glue gun because I kept on burning myself. I was able to do it by keeping my fingers away from the tip of the glue gun.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the size of the track because it is very small. The reason why I would change it is because the track is really small.
