What I enjoyed the most was working with Faith and Alex because it was really fun and we didn\u2019t blame each other for mistakes. What I would do differently next time is instead of the toppers and bells do a bit of the Palace of Westminster.<\/p>\n<cite>Juliet<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>1.Durning the making of our Big Ben we learned quite a lot but the most important thing I think I learned wasn\u2019t any of the skills, I think it was that it doesn\u2019t matter who you work with and it doesn\u2019t matter if it goes your way, it\u2019s about the fun and great times you had together that count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"2\">\n<li>Whilst making Big Ben my favourite part was listening to my partners ideas and using them in different ways or giving them more ideas that improved their first one.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next time I would maybe think about the design and give other techniques and suggestions a try, I would maybe make a different building and scale it better.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<cite>Olivia Rose<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>I think the most important thing I\u2019ve learned while making our buildings in the makerspace is getting better at scaling and measuring. I really enjoyed making the centre part of the building because there was a lot of measuring and cutting involved. If I could do something differently I would not make a frame for the bottom part.<\/p>\n<cite>Rory<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>I learned a lot about making and fixing different thing and solving problems.
