Middle School Art (7th and 8th Grade)

Work continues on the construction of the wooden candy dispensers. All the students have glued their pieces together, drilled the pilot holes and have begun or completed connecting the pieces together with wood screws. They all received a lesson on the hand held drills and the scroll saw and I replaced the belt on the sander, so work is moving quickly now. Next week is unfortunately a week without art classes due to time out of school, but we should complete the project in the next couple of classes. I appreciate the growth of confidence and the attention to safety all the students have shown. I love having the ability to build with this group.

The favorite tool of the students! (Someday we will have one for every student)
