Technology

In Te Ngahere we went to technology at Moerewa School. The year 7’s went to woodwork and metalwork while the year 8’s cooked lasagne. We had three tests in woodwork, one about safety, one about how well we listened, and the last one about hand tools. After we finished the tests we got to use the tools and see what we could do with them. The part I enjoyed the most was sawing a piece of wood and making it into a wood hook like maui’s hook with a coping saw which was a hand tool which was small but not small then it had a handle on top of the saw, then on the bottom of the handle there was a saw it kind of looked like a semi circle. I also think I could try using the power tools more like the power drill which had a massive drill on it as it says in the name but you had to have chuck key for the chuck. The chuck was a metal part where you got a key and unlocked it I wasn’t quite sure what unlocking it did.
