Woodshop: Learning how to sand

The Grasshoppers have begun a really cool project in woodshop. They  decided that they need more places to sit in their chill zone so they are making a reading bench! 

One aspect of building the bench is learning about sanding wood. Our woodshop teacher, Glenn, showed the children several types of sandpaper that had a variety of levels of coarseness  Then they discussed how these different sandpapers could be used. Finally, the kids practiced sanding and had a blast!
