8P7 - Pins

Using google drawing and a pin maker, I created pins of my pets because I wanted to make something of them. I enjoyed this project because it was fun to design and make my pins.  However, It was slightly difficult to size the pictures when printing.

During this process, I learned how to use the pin maker and circle cutter. The easiest part of my project was designing my pins. The hardest part of my project was sizing my pins.

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 made a design that is unique and personal. I feel very happy with the designs I created.

A challenge I overcame on this project was deciding what to design. I was able to do it by choosing the most interesting idea. I did this because I wanted to make something fun.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change how detailed the cockatiel is. The reason why I would change it is that the cockatiel doesn't have much detail. I would change this by spending more time on it.
