My Project

It's pretty simple, a student's desk is not enough space to paint, and assemble modeling projects such as the Red Tails, the Enola Gay, or a fire fight with a BF-109. Models will be suspended from classroom ceiling when complete. Worktable can be used for 1000's of hands on projects that are especially good at times for Diverse Learners or other students who's best way of learning is not hearing or seeing information. Please let me use this very practical item to give students the space they need for special projects so anyone and everyone can succeed in my class. Modeling and creating historical buildings, scenes, and using models to explain critical concepts (such as using a factory to represent means of production in an explanation of capitalism) makes teaching easy and fun for the students and myself. Let us build (literally, our vocabulary list etc. Help me bring this personal hobby of mine to my students and find the few that will excel at it and give them some validation for their attention to detail.
