Industrial Technology I
Attendance Policy
Attendance
is very; very important in this class, many of the activities that might
be
missed cannot be made up because of the nature
of the material. Time will be provided after
school for students who must be absent or get
behind. Make-up work is the responsibility of
the student and should be obtained and turned
in within one week of returning to school.
Students should be on time to class, this means in the door before it shuts
and in their
seat, students who cannot make it to class on
time will be counted late.
Behavior
Students should bring the following to
class every day--
Pencil, Paper, Agenda
and a willingness to learn.
Students should not borrow
or steal from others.
Students should be polite
and talk one at a time, not interrupting anyone in the classroom..
Students should do their own
work; they may help others
but should not do or
allow others to do their work.
Students must help if involved
in a group assignment.
Tests
There will be five tests
as follows:
Safety, Chapter 1,2 and measuring, Plastics, Quarter, Semester
Materials
All students will need the following items:One
folder (to be kept in the classroom),
notebook paper, graph paper (4
square to the inch), pencilsand
an extra eraser,closed toe shoes during
shop times..
Objectives
The students will be able to :
1. Learn safe work habits and precautions necessary in a shop area.
2. Identify the major steps in product design and manufacturing.
3. Recognize the importance of accurate communication through drawings.
4. Recognize and describe hand tools, portable
power tools and machines used in the
manufacturing of leather,
plastics and wood projects.
5. Demonstrate an understanding of graphic
communications systems through sketching
and computer activities.
6. Develop basic skills and knowledge necessary
to create, transmit and receive graphic
messages.
7. Evaluate usefulness and quality of a product before, during and after construction.

Paying for materials
Individual accounts for project materials will need to be paid into before
we begin
projects. Students who have
not paid into accounts before the deadline may be placed in another course
at the descretion of school personel. We will work as hard
as possible to keep this cost down. I hope this initial paymentwill
cover all materials used. Students will be notified if more charges
are incurred or refunds are forthcoming periodically
during the semester. Cost for lost or damaged items may also be theresponsibility
of the student/parent. You will be notified of these charges
by a note if they are more than $5.00.
If you wish to know the cost of a project or the current status of your
child’saccount or grade at anytime please send a note with your child,
e-mail me or call at 742-2588
ext. 213.
Summary
In summary it is my hope that useful projects and activities that the student
will
participate in will help them better understand
how technology touches our lives. This semester
some changes will be made to help students stay
on track. Please check agendas weekly for
activities that they are participating in.
Some types of projects will be required. Project ideas
will also be available in books, folders, and
may be developed by the student. Please sign below
and return as soon as possible.

Introduction
Industrial Technology
II at the Middle School level is designed to be a continuation of
the skills and book knowledge learned in Industrial
Technology I. The class will be divided into
units of study, where students will rotate through
different areas and may require a partner to
complete the assignment. Written research
of units, practical experience within the shop, and
student cooperation will determine the grade
in the class. All class assignments and the parent
permission form on the last page of this document
must be turned in before the student will be
allowed to work in the shop.
Shop safety will be stressed throughout
the course. Safe work habits are a must in the
Middle School shop. A list of safety rules
will be distributed to each student. All students will
pass a safety test with 100%
correct and complete a safety video.
