Construction Technology provides students with classroom instruction and hands-on experiences in various aspects of the construction industry.

Course Offerings include:

• Woodworking Technology I, II, III- Students are introduced to the different construction processes in woodworking. Students will learn about measurement, layout, shop drawings and cutting lists. They will gain a basic understanding of the various kinds of materials used in the industry. Students will learn to use selected woodworking tools and machinery, correctly and safely in order to create one of a kind pieces.

• Geometry in Construction/Construction with Geometry -This course follows Jeffco Geometry Bridge to Curriculum, while simultaneously linking the math to real life applications in the construction world. Mathematical reasoning, modelling, problem solving and communication are developed throughout the following units of study: Expressing Geometric Properties with Equations, Congruence, Similarity, Right triangles and Trig, Quadrilaterals and Polygons, Probability and Statistics, Circles, Geometric Measurement and Dimension. On the construction side, students use the math to read blueprints, calculate material lists, and build items which are intended for sale to the public. This year our students will build a tiny home from start to finish.
