Another term of tech

This term the year 7s are now doing wood tech. 

Since it's the first lesson of the term our teacher is showing us around by giving us a treasure hunt.

Our classroom is full of tools and great wood carvings. This term we will be using tools like a spinning lathe  and other hand tools like tenon saws , coping saws, squares and rulers. We are going to make boxes, we will cut shapes,  make signs and whistles.

Tech - Soft Materials

Last week we finished our soft toys. We are now making pencil cases. They are a little bit easier than the soft toys so they will only take two days to get finished. Today we are also packing up since  it is the last week of term.

We will be allowed to have free time after we have gotten our pencil cases and toys marked off, if they haven't already. We are going to have a big pack up because it is the last sesion of the term and everything needs to be clean.

Everyone enjoyed tech this term and everyone is looking forward to it next term.
