Woodworking
The STEM Maker Project of the Month is intended to provide a variety of "making" opportunities for students in grades 1-5. One project per month is offered, featuring a range of skills and media.
Our students enjoyed a woodworking emphasis where they each were about to construct something to take home at the conclusion of the day.
