You should be prepared

We are going to have a clean-up/shop day tomorrow. We will have teams assigned to do different projects around the room. We will have a couple sections on desk cleaning detail, a couple sections cleaning chairs, one section may even mop! It took 46 trash cans to clean that room, so yes you all made quite a mess, so now is the time to finish the cleaning. We promise not to get you too dirty, but you should dress appropriately for class tomorrow. Be ready!

You should also buy a 2" x 12" x 8' piece of lumber and bring it to class tomorrow if possible or we will arrange some trucks to travel to Home Depot or Pan-Tex to retrieve our needed lumber. We will have a couple groups working on building boxes tomorrow. The 2" x 12" will vary in length and price. At Home Depot this piece is 12' long and 17.97 without tax. Stores will sell a 2" x 12" anywhere from 8' in length to 12' in length. You need a piece that is at least 8', do not worry about getting one longer than this. You really need four 24 inch pieces to build your box. We will discuss the box you will be using for the remaining part of the semester at length first thing tomorrow. The interior dimension of the box will be 20" x 20" x 10".

See you tomorrow....
