The values that are important to us are Justice, health and nature.

Justice: Justice was one of our shared values so we decided to add the Canadian Courthouse into our city to show that.

Health: Health is also an important value to us so we decided to add a park so people could get exercise, we also added a hospital because that is a big part of health so we thought it would be important to add to Grassville.

Nature/Environment: nature was something we thought was necessary to add to the city so we made sure we had lots of trees and a huge park instead of many buildings. We value the environment and nature a lot so that’s how Grassville got its name.

My Factory Town

My Town:

My Reflection

  1. How was the ease of access in building the town, and what software did you use specifically?

building the town was very fun and easy to do. The app I used was Town Creator and it was not hard to use at all.

  1. Were you able to apply the skills you learned in the planning stages appropriately to a digital environment?

yes

  1. What were the sources you researched that made this an “authentic make-believe” town?

i used this website to see what type of things i should put in my town.

  1. Is there other software online that could have done the job better? Explain.

I don’t know of a different software that would have worked better. I feel that the one we used was easy to understand and was easy for you to see our ideas because of the over view of the town.

Biography about myself

My name is Brianna, something you should know about me is that I am very independent. I absolutely love being and doing things alone. Because I am very independent something I will need to work on is group projects, I am not the best at group projects because I am not good at listening to other people’s opinions and using other people’s ideas but I try my hardest to do so. A strength for me is projects that we work on by ourselves I am great at coming up with interesting topics and I am very good at sharing them with the class. I am a perfectionist so I always put my best work into every big or small assignment this can be good but sometimes it’s actually not that great because sometimes I get distracted on small details and end up wasting time, but you can always count on my work being my absolute best. I also love doing sports I have done skating, gymnastics, cheer and football and currently I am doing lacrosse, CrossFit, wrestling and basketball. I am a very shy person so doing these activities make me more social because I need to communicate with my team. 

An image that you enjoy 

Looking at this imagine immediately brings me joy. This image is beautiful and when I look at it, I am instantly smiling. This image makes me happy because my favorite thing to do is walk threw a forest alone. People often think being alone is sad but honestly, I think it’s amazing that a person can bring themselves their own happiness without someone else doing it for them. 

My favorite website 

My favorite website is YouTube! YouTube is my favorite because I love watching my favorite youtubers videos and see what they have been doing. A great thing about YouTube is how many videos there are, you can find a video on anything and everything.

“The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall” 

What this quote means to me is that for myself to ever have success I must be able to overcome failure. I find this quote interesting because people often see failure as a bad thing, but it really doesn’t have to be. One who never fails will never learn how to recover after failure. Failure is a chance to come back and make something better than it was before, if you never learn how to recover from failure you will fear it but, if you can learn how to recover from failure you will learn how to accept it, once you can learn to accept failure that’s when you can truly achieve the glory of succeeding.

Favorite video 

The message in this video is truly amazing! All my life I have always tried to stand up for myself and others who can’t do it for themselves. The message in this video taught me that its ok to do something different than what everyone else is doing and it’s even harder to do something different than when someone you care about is doing the opposite and that it takes a lot of courage. I believe no matter who you are you can totally get something out of watching this video.
