Sent an email last week wanting to order decks. Hadn't heard back from you so I just thought I'd post here to make sure you got it.

Thanks!

Id really like a good idea for how and where to store power tools (drills, circular saws, palm sanders, jog saws, etc.) - They are used with such regularity that I don't think that putting them in their case is the most efficient.

How do you all store these items for easy use?

Topic: Focusing my curriculum...

As I mentioned in my other thread, I am a third year Industrial Tech middle school teacher.

My bach. degree is in Social Studies and Religious Studies, so I have no formal education in Industrial Tech, with the exception of 2 years of architecture school when I was 18-19.

However, I love woodworking and have really, really enjoyed my three years here. Now it's time to start revamping the curriculum. I feel like my focus is too spread out and I would rather narrow it a bit and concentrate on being excellent at meeting those goals.

Because of time/money contraints, I would really rather focus our work on woodworking/construction type work.

I would be happy to tell you what I currently do if it would help you guys (I teach Indus Tech 1 to 7th graders and Ind tech 2 to 8th). However, my real question is how have you all focused your classes into what is best for your kids and what is best/ most efficient for you?

I am a third year middle school Industrial Technology teacher. I inherited the old high school shop when our district built a new 30 mil dollar high school. So I have a substantial shop - certainly bigger than most middle schools.

However, the old HS teacher (now gone) left the old shop in disarray and I have over the course of the last couple years gotten it much more organized and efficient.

But I'm still needing help. I would love to habe some more ideas and tips of what you use and how yuo organize: lumber, hardwoods, handtools (i do have a fairly nice tool cabinet), power tools (I have lots of drills, jig saws, circular saws, etc.

What are some things that work for you?
