     If I was the teacher, I would add woodshop to our school curriculum. This class would meet everyday; the students can choose this class as an elective if they are interested. In this class, students would be able to make things out of wood. For example, a typical design for a woodshop class would be to make a clock. Furthermore, students can also create  bird feeders, bird houses, shelves, and more. This class will allow students to build things their own, which can help them advance in knowledge further down in life. 

    Woodshop will help students feel more accomplished and useful. By being able to build things individually, they will understand that they can do anything. They will feel proud of what they have accomplished. The classroom would have six large tables made out of thick wood, wood cutting materials attached to the tables, and pieces of wood surrounding the classroom for the students to use. However, the classroom will have to be in a location that is not near any classrooms, as the class can become quite loud. The students will be able to demonstrate what they've learned by showing the teachers what they've created. If what they had built is useful, strong, nicely designed, and was created in all the right steps, then students will have showed the amount that they've learned in this class.
