A special class brought to you by our K-8 Technologist and Design Integrationist, Jonathan Braidman, Hand Tool Basics will focus on basic usage of hand tools in order to shape wood. In this class, K-2 Students will learn to use basic hand tools to shape wood. We will explore the basics of hammering, screwing, and sawing, with the end goal of students creating their own mini sculptures. One of our main goals in this class is encouraging student safety practices and confidence while learning basic concepts involving these specific tools. Some limited use of power tools under close supervision is likely for some projects!
