Planning Questions:
Are you working by yourself or in a team? Im working with Nathan and Saphira so in a team.
What materials did you need for your project? We needed string play-doh, aluminium foil, and the makey makey set.
What is your plan to make with this project? I planned to make either a PAC-man game board controller or a arrow key controller to control the snake game on google.
What unique qualities will your project have to separate it from other peoples project? I used my own ideas and made it in a random way and didn't copy anybody's ideas or ways of using the makey makey
Using Makey Makey, I created a play doh piano because i thought it would be kinda hard and challenging to make.
During this process, I learned that makey makey can be easy to work with as long as you focus and make sure that they all match up with each other
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 we have to use our brain power and think outside of the box.
A challenge I overcame on this project was getting the wires to work correctly when they are attached t the play-doh I was able to do it by asking my teammates for help and asking a different group for help.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change my item i made. The reason why I would change it is because once i got the hang of it it wasn't as hard as i thought it would be

this picture is what our makey makey looks like with all the circuts connected to the alimninum foil and the circuts connected to the arrows but one is connected to earth. We taped down the foil and the wires so it was easier to use as a gamepad.
This is a picture of the makey makey motherboard being connected to the computer we used to have the online games. if you can see in the picture the wires are taped down to the table because they were hard to click when they were just randomly on the table.
