Mr. Michelon Industrial Technology
Golden West Middle SchoolCOURSE OUTLINE
There are certain rules and requirements I have for all of my classes. You should know and understand them.
Grading is based on the following:
1. PROJECTS will be graded on the ability to follow instructions, joints, accuracy, finish and overall craftsmanship.
2. CLASSROOM: Students are graded on their notebook, worksheets, notes, and tests. Students are required to keep an assignment log in their notebook, which their classroom grade can be derived from at anytime during the semester.
3. ATTITUDE: Attitude and behavior is based upon the student’s action in the classroom and in the lab. Also, clean-up and Safety will be observed.
4. ATTENDANCE: Each student is expected to work toward finishing their project everyday. Too many absences will put a hardship on the student’s grade. This is a hands-on type course. Students have the same amount of time they were absent to make up excused absences. No make-up work will be given after that time or for unexcused or illegal absences.
SAFETY: Safety will cover the use, care, and handling of hand tools, machines and hand power tools. There will be demonstrations and safety tests given on each machine and each student must pass the tests before they will be allowed to use the equipment on their projects.
GOAL: The goal of this class is to introduce the students to a variety of experiences in the planning, designing, drawing and construction of projects. In a discipline atmosphere the students will receive the basic knowledge of how to use hand, machine, and power tools safely.
Remember: SAFETY PAYS YOU!!!
