Sanding the Rough Edges

Today, the children sawed more wood and some of them decided to  use sandpaper blocks to smooth out the rough edges of the wood. Mittens became work gloves and work resumed. 

Jared is pointing to  his plan  so that he will know how long to make his next piece of wood.
Nathan notices that "The wood is getting on the sanding paper " and he looks at the white residue on the sand paper.

Max noted that there were "little pieces of wood. It's turning yellow cause I'm scratching the wood. "
Molly said,"It's getting smaller and smoother with sanding." The students continue to be excited to work on their  projects and wait patiently until it is their turn to work. Next time, some of the students will start to hammer!
