Dylan plans a wood gift for his brother's birthday. He decided on a balsa wood toy plane. We began the search on the internet for a possible design.

Marcos continued his measuring rod by removing all nails and screws. He also inspected carefully for flaws and removed as many as possible.

Danny continued a short unit in measuring using a tape measure. He also compared driving nails into soft and hard wood.

Teacher did planning for future sessions with Dylan.

Dylan continued the construction of his little boat using nails only today to attach two more pieces of wood. He used a coping saw to cut the wood.

Teacher does planning for future sessions with Christopher.

Danny learned the correct, save use, of the a measuring tape. He measured several objects in the industrial arts laboratory successfully. Last, I helped Danny measure his height at 54 1/4". Great session...

Dylan learned by trial and error that both shank and thread holes must be drilled in order to install a wood screw. He also learned that sometimes a hole needs to be drilled in the first piece of wood to properly drive a nail into both pieces. Great session...

Marcos and I took a brief field trip to the Batt storage garage looking for possible ideas for his next Industrial Arts endeavor.

Marco experimented with the chisels to see what wood tree type is easiest to carve. Excellent session...
