Workshops of pupils from Poland





Pupils were interested in the geographical situation of countries which participate in our project. They noticed that the most of these countries had coastline. Therefore pupils decided to make models of ships.  


Pupils had the access to materials showing different models of ships.  Works were preceded by the working illustration which iclude the dimensions of the semi-finished products of wood.
 


 Boys like to create their own models of ships very much. They made works about different level of difficulties, depending on skills of wood’s treatment.











They were involved in the process of creating and they had their own ideas.
In the process of creating ships  we formed manual skills of our pupils. Besides we developed abillity of solving simple technical tasks independently by themself. 



We trained skills:
-         using material sparingly,
-         measuring, cutting wood with a handsaw,
-         chiseling,drilling,
-         giving the shape with the rasp and the abrasive paper,
-         arranging and joining elements.

We tried to develop the ability to focus on the own work and the habit for improving it.
 
















 

















Pupils have to take care about the order on their workstation.

Abilities of using tools at the wood’s treatment, could be usefull in their daily life as well as professional life.
We made a work which developed the pupil’s creativity.

 Mgr Dorota Skorupa has given clasess.

Our final result........


 















One of them built structures composing of blocks put on oneself (small motor boat). The others made sailing-ships of their dreams.
