Thanks to a generous donation of materials from L.G. Nuzum Lumber in Hillsboro, students in Mr. Levy's Building Trades class are erecting a construction trainer module. This model is a replica of a building corner, featuring a laid platform and walls constructed at full scale by students.
The firsthand experience doesn't stop where the framing ends, this model will be used to practice residential electrical wiring, plumbing, and drywall work as semester continues.
Building Trades offers students in grades 10-12 the opportunity to learn how to safely operate a variety of portable power tools, practice footing and foundations, framing, roofing, and careers in construction, plumbing, masonry and electrical. The class also emphasizes workplace safety across the industries.
