<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hi<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I began teaching 10 years ago and have been using the focus of different materials in the classroom.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">What was ostensibly a woodwork class is now multiple materials.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">When looking on other school sites I see that ‘Woodwork’ seems to be how they describe their programs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">This is great to a certain degree (and I might be alone here), but I think teachers that are not embracing the use of, and research of multiple materials in their classrooms, are missing out on the opportunity to make
their classes more interesting and engaging.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">There are some great resources here, but the Tech Ed forum doesn’t seem to work.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Cheers<o:p></o:p></span></p>
