7P2-cardboard challenge

Daily log

Day 1- Today we did the sketch and got the materials needed.

Day 2- Today we started cutting out the main frame.

Day 3- Today we hot glued cardboard together to make the wheels.

Day 4- Today we made the bottom of the Jeep and a place where the wheels will sit.

Day 5- Today my teammates were gone so I had to work by myself I got most of it put together.

Day 6-Today one of my teammates is back so we get the next things we needed to cut out cut and we hot glued them on the Jeep.

Day 7- Today our third partner came back and we finished the cardboard project and we stated our video.

Day 8- Today I finished the refection and put the video no my website.

Using an iPad, iMovie, and the internet, I created a cardboard Jeep because I like cars and I didn't know what else I wanted to make out of cardboard. Jeeps are pretty cool and I want to own one when I can drive, so I made one.

During the process of making the Jeep, I learned how to use hot glue efficiently and not waste a bunch like a certain someone Mya and I know. I also learned how to curve and cut cardboard to fit exactly how I needed it to be.

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 Creative Communicator because I asked my partners and we talked about the certain aspects of our car and we worked through the problems and complications together.

A challenge I overcame on this project was time frames. I tried to mentally set a time frame for when I wanted to finish certain parts of the car, but I failed at almost all of those. I overcame this challenge by not doing that, which helped me get done faster not worrying about the time.

Given a chance to do this project again, I would work alone. That way, I would be the one to blame if something went wrong so I couldn't be mad. Also I just prefer working by myself.

Hastings High School Carrier and Technical Education Program Offers Agriculture, Business Management, Computer Programming, Construction Trades, Culinary Arts, Digital Multimedia, Engineering Design, Finance, Insurance, and Marketing. Our project connects to Engineering Design because we designed the car (kind of) out of cardboard with our own design and we did really whatever we wanted with the car.
