After school on Wednesdays, I was in an enrichment program. It is called Wood Working. We learned how to cut, glue, and sand. My first project was a covered wagon. My second project was the wishing well. When I was sawing, I had my goggles on. We wore them, so we would not get saw dust in our eyes. After cutting we went to the sanding table. I started with the eighty grade sandpaper and ended with the two twenty sandpaper. Sometimes I even used the three eighty grade sandpaper. The point of sanding is to get it smooth, so we would not get splinters. At the glueing table, we glued the parts we had sanded and cut. We did one part at a time. It took us ten weeks to finish. If we finished our part of the project early, we could work on any other project that we wanted. I made a horse to go with the wagon. One time with my friend we made bongos. For our teacher we made a blogging boat because she has a blog. It is called
Mrs. Yollis' Classroom Blog.
