New areas have been added to the curriculum and many new machines and tools added to the rebuilt shop itself. The Senior Shop, which is under the direction of Mr. G. H. Elliott, includes the fifth grade boys and all the sixth, seventh, and eighth ;scivin‘ g;)od fundamental activiâ€" ties in the Junior Shop under Miss lqgry Turpin, the children come to the Senior Shop for more diâ€" versified activities with ° varied materials. In the Junior Shop the children have worked with wood exclusively and with hand tools only, but upon reaching the Senâ€" ior Shop, the children have drawâ€" ing, woodworking, plastics and metalworking available to them. _ The seventh gru;:ts go a little further in the drawing and learn ‘more about detail in project drawâ€" ing and how to dimension â€"drawâ€" ings. To conclude this drawing exploration, each student makes a complete drawing of a project he or she intends to make. In this way studerts have the groundwork to move into the shop and begin their project work. The eighth graders carry their acquired knowledge from their sixth and seventh: grade drawing a little further and finish by makâ€" ing a tracing and then making a reproduction â€"from the tracing. The â€"making of a suitable drawing from which to make a tracing inâ€" troduces the children to the basic instrumerits used in mechanical drawing:~ namely, the drawing board, Tâ€"square and triangles. ~Theâ€"Shop®isâ€"very. willâ€"equipped Each of the sixth, seventh, and eighth grade classes enters the planning area before receiving any shop work in the Senior Shop. Starting with the sixth grade, stuâ€" dents rgceive very elementary inâ€" struction in how to sketch objects pictorially and then to draw them in the working drawing technique. All this is done freehand and is intended to help them grasp the fundamentals ‘of shop drawing and planning. From this they can better go ahead with their project work in the shop. With our large classes of today this is important both to the student and the teachâ€" er, since the student can do more by himself, and,. therefore, the teacher is able to get around to more ‘students during the class period. â€" are. urged to welcome your Red Cross solicitor and Give Generousâ€" for the elementary level. There are some fourteen machines availâ€" able, including two wood lathes, jig saw, band saw, circular saw, belt and dise sander, drill press, two grinders, two buffers, a porâ€" table sander, blue printing machâ€" ine, box brake and a slip roll. Stuâ€" dents work with them progressâ€" ively through the grades until by the eighth grade they have learnâ€" ed to use all the machines that they desire or which were necesâ€" sary in the making of their proâ€" â€" Students are free to work with woods, metals or plastics as they choose. They are not required to make any designated project, but are allowed to make any project that would fit their levels or backâ€" grounds. Better than this, the stuâ€" dents are encouraged to design drawing area and to carry them over to the shop. Classes divide according to. individual wants and on, simultaneously. This type of activity is the true general shop organization, and it lends itself to the elementary level very well since children of this age level are anxious to expériment with difâ€" ferent materials, projects and sixth and seventh grades there is much exploration and experimentâ€" ing with all three materials.
