Woods

Over the next semester we will be learning how to work with wood products.  We will be looking at safety, wood types, how to shape wood products, how to assemble wood products, and how to finish wood products.  We will be doing this by completing two woods projects the first will be a end table the second will be decided by the student.  In doing this we will have some paper work, some hands on work, and a lot of fun!

All tests and assignments done in this class will be assigned points. At the end of the term all the points will be totaled up and graded according to the default scale in PowerSchool.  Mr. Dorn reserves the right to alter any grades as necessary to ensure that safety and morale are rewarded

Each student is expected to participate and treat each other and shop materials with respect.  Attendance is crucial to succeed, as hands on activities will be a bulk of your grade. There is zero tolerance for cheating.  If there is a lack of respect or a discipline problem, parents will be contacted and further consequences will occur, as well as Mr. Dorn reserves the right to do whatever is needed to ensure the safety of the student or other students to ensure the safety of everyone. Students may be removed from the class for extreme behavior, and removal from one Tech Ed class may result in the removal from all Tech Ed classes.
