Woodwork at Tamaki tech


On Monday it was the 8th of June at Tamaki tech. I went to wood work. I chose to make a truck. Our teacher is Mr Grundy, he gave us a piece of wood, but first we had to design it on paper and measure it. When I got my wood I had to measure it and then I had to saw it off. Mr Grundy told us how to use a chisel with a mallet. It was almost time to go back to school.

Every one was out side waiting to go home and then my teacher took us back to school. When we got back to school it was morning tea time. Next week is the last week at Tamaki Tech for the term. The things I need to finish on my truck is the wheels. Next week is the last week at woodwork and I am going to be finished.
