The photos above and below show some of what has been going on at Clear Spring School. The 3rd and 4th grade students have been finishing their models of the solar system. The Chemistry students have been assembling the various elements for their periodic table, and today we began assembling the framework in which it will be displayed. Pet Golden, our math and science teacher is excited about this project. And one of the things that is often forgotten in public education is that teaching is best when the teachers are creatively engaged in the subject material and the teaching process.And finally, we are making great progress on the bench for Crystal Bridges. The rough shape of the bench has been determined and the boards are being sanded by my high school intern Luke. I have a new technique which I am applying in making dovetails, and though I won't explain it all now, you can see a hint in the last photo.
