<div><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Arial;">A question was asked about projects that a shop teacher
could use with 5th graders. My reply was to first decide which skills the
students needed to learn and then create projects that develop those
skills: sawing in a straight line, using a square, smoothing with a plane, using
a coping saw, etc. Additionally, the shop teacher has an opportunity to
integrate the other skills the students are learning into his teaching: reading
directions, measuring, math, 45 and 90 degree angles, working in
groups on a project, etc. I editorialized, however, if there are
more students than stations, it will be a challenge. I climbed higher on
my soapbox and expressed my admiration for those teachers who, in spite of
issues of overcrowding, dealing with the diversity of students and their
development, somehow make it work.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Arial;">I'm personally not into blaming a single entity for our
problems, educational, political or otherwise. We're all in this
together. The guy in the mirror is as much to blame as anybody else. He
also deserves some credit, because, in spite of our problems--and we'll never be
without them, we're all doing a pretty good job of plugging away with what we've
got.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Arial;">Now off the soapbox and back to making chips.</span></div>

Good idea Ivan! I wonder if Congress would consider it.... That
unfortunately won't happen because they are sooo much more important than
teachers and children.<br>
