Journey Overview

On your way to being a Wood Master, there are several Tasks for you to accomplish. These Tasks are designed to be done in the "in between time"...when you are waiting to use a particular machine, or waiting for help from the teacher or when you have a few minutes before the end of class.

Each Task requires you to seek information -- by watching a video, reading a webpage, or reading a document.  All of the Tasks require you to discuss what you have learned with your classmates and then write about it in your Wood Master's Book. This verifies what you have learned and helps others learn, as well.  Although your Wood Master Journey requires you to build your own project, you are working in a group by learning with others.
