Technology
Every Monday morning the year seven students go to Tamaki College on a bus, to do hard materials. We have to always bring a pencil.
We create wooden toys by using housing joints. It takes a lot of concentration and listening. Our Walt for this week was to construct a housing joint. Mr Grundy discussed very important safety rules that must be observed at the workshop. Measuring the wood blocks was the most difficult part because we had to get it absolutely perfect.
I found that it took deep thinking as well as designing to keep up with the task. It was challenging and fun. The tools, like bench vice and try square were new. I haven’t worked with tools before.
Hardware materials are fun but it requires concentration, listening, thinking and designing. I am enjoying it.
