wood shop students learn the basic safety skills and how to use and work in a
shop environment. They learn how
to use hand tools, how to identify the different woods and how to build a
simple project. They work on
design, measuring and math skills.
The students learn what goes into the cost of a product.
In the metal shop students will be oriented to resources, technical
processes, industrial applications, and technological impacts of
manufacturing. A materials fee
will be assessed to each student to cover the cost of their
project.
