Today in the woodshop, 7th grader Rachel, wearing a Valentines Day Tutu began making a foot stool using hand tools. I wish I had had the chance for such things when I was in 7th grade. In the photo below, Rachel is using a rip saw, and sawing in the rather unconventional Sloyd style. The 5th and 6th grade students finished their pyramid boxes.Shown in the photo are Ryan, Brendan, Killian and Tanner.
I wish they had let girls take woodworking classes when I was young--we had no choice but to take home economics, which was worthless since for most of us our moms had already taught us that stuff.
