20 Questions Reflection

     When my partner and I played 20 questions we won once.  The round we won in was when we were guessing the character Joey from Friends.  The rest of the times we played it took the computer until the high twenties to guess our character.  I enjoyed playing this game.

Blog Observation

     I think everyone did a great job on their creative designs.  All the designs were very detailed and used a lot of color.  It looks like everyone used different skills to reach their goal.  All the designs looked great.

#6 My Own: Maple Leaf Bead loom

     I chose to draw a Maple Leaf on graph paper then I used the bead loom design tool to create it.

#5 My choice Bead loom

     For this activity I based it off of one of the examples and put some of my own creativity into it using the skills I practiced.

African American #4 Cornrow Activity

     For this Cornrow activity I had to figure out a lot of different degrees and angles to position the pieces correctly.  I would say this was the most challenging activity of them all since you had to play around until you figured out a system.

Native American #3 Rug Weaver


      I think I've definitely improved working with the design tools.  I'm only working point to point when I need to get into small areas.  In this activity I used a lot of triangles using the triangle tool.  I enjoyed this activity.

Native American #2 Basket Weavework

 
      What I found most challenging about this activity was keeping track of what point I was on and figuring out how to make it symmetrical.  Towards the end when I started to feel more comfortable with the tool, instead of going point by point I started to go by line.  I found this a lot easier once I figured out how to do it.

Hour of Code

     When I went on the Hour of Code website I really enjoyed how you had to solve each of the puzzles.  I chose the Frozen Ice Skating Challenge.  The thing I did not like about the site is that some of the levels were very similar.  What I learned is that you can repeat blocks by putting a repeat bracket around them.  Overall I enjoyed this activity.
