Exploring the opportunities provided by different materials and handicraft techniques.
Students will learn the mythology of the labyrinth and the Minotaur.
Students will continue to work on the design of their labyrinth game. The design should be ready to transfer to wood at the end of this lesson. Extra help can be given in tutorial on Wednesdays from 15:15-16:30.
Students will transfer their design to wood and drill their trap holes. They will use the cordless drills and paddle bits as well as the drill press.
Students will continue to drill their trap holes with the drill press or a cordless drill. The traps need to be sanded so there are no rough edges. The game finish corner will be cut out with the scroll saw. Some students will start to put up their walls.
