My Project

These carts will be using for our small engines class. Allowing students to have a space that they can call their own. They will practice taking care of their space, tools and engines.

This donation will allow students to be able to easier work with other classmates and optimize the space that we have in our shop.

Students will also be able to have their own set of socket and wrenches that they will be able to keep neat and orderly.

The goal is to make students take pride in having a need and orderly space that they can feel is theirs. Students will also be able to conveniently work/troubleshoot with other classmates. These carts also benefit other shop classes because they are easy to move so it gives them more space to work.

As a teacher, I want to make sure that all the tools that students use a resource and don't get lost. These carts also have a locking feature that will allow students to lock up their engines, socket set, wrenches and spare parts. Please help my students take pride in staying organized during their class!
