Week 20

This week we got Mr.Smith back to work and have been finishing up the sanctuary. We have been putting the door up and the Sanctuary looks pretty complete besides the other door being missing. We are working on that. However, the door we have painted was a nude the same as the inside. The hinges are black and most of the windows are put in they just need to be finished up. We are getting to the last week of school and are very low on time now. We have still much to finish with the Sanctuary including up the touch ups of painting, finishing the windows, the other door, the vinyl cut outs, Etc. I think we can basically finish it by the time we all leave maybe little things will need to be finished but we got this teamwork.
What I have learned in this class throughout this year have been things I would not have learned if I did not take this class . I have learned meany manly things like building a structure! Also learning to make these amazing looking jars. Sandblasting and making stickers with vinyl. I have learned how to use tools I never even knew existed. Besides the manly things I also learned more about the news and to stay and involved, history lessons, debates, and way more. I have learned so much from listening and also working. I am glad I got to experience this class and the way you have to use numbers in the  real world.

Week 19

This week we have lost somebody very important. Everything will be okay though the Sanctuary is still beautiful and sitting inside the shelter on a warm day was relaxing. We have been watching videos in class this past week about many different things. Different ways of building things. It was very complex and difficult but I also got to finish a couple projects for my classes. It has been a successful week still but we hope to get Mr.Smith back very soon.

My regards,

I hope you feel better Mr.Smith

Week 18

    This week in the shop we moved the Sanctuary and now it is closer to our building and more out of the way. It was taken apart and put back together which was what our goal was, being able to disassemble the structure. There are little parts of the inside that still needs painting we have been doing touch ups on the door so now our frames look a gorgeous purple with an undercoat of brown. I learned how to build a little screwed up window that did not quite fit, but we are working on that. A door we have built was sandblasted yesterday and will be ready in no time. We have to create the slideshow which we are working on with all the picture Nikki took. More to come in the shop.

    Define Yourself? How do you define yourself hmm. In my opinion I can be a positive person but in many situations I am also a very emotional teenage girl. I am a human like every other human. There are not many ways to define myself other than I try to do what is best for myself and stay happy in not so happy situations. I get my work done when I start it and also continue to stay organized. There are many details of me as I would love to talk about myself all day, I do not have that long so I will end it there until next time..

Week #17

   This week in the shop we continue to work on the Sanctuary. We now know that the doors are to big, so we will build our own doors. There are the ideas for the top of the Sanctuary for putting plasma cuts in every other opening and windows or something in the other openings? Ideas. I have been painting the inside and we are completely finished. The way the cream color brightens the room is really great, good thing we chose that color. Others painted the bottom part of the Sanctuary so it is not an orange brown gross color nobody liked. It has started to get gloomy and now it rains which has not stopped everyone in the shop still working. 

    What does school mean to you? The essential question this week is very interesting and makes you think. School is an important aspect to life and being smart to go somewhere in life. Going to school can teach you so much and set you up for a further career in life. School to me makes you more outgoing and capable of making friends, teaches you what you will need to know and has amazing resources to help you.
