Shop Class: 12/8

As the students enter the classroom, They'll see and outdoor setting with multiple carts (the size of a Cooper mini) standing in front of a river.

The fact that the river is a mauve color should not be questioned.

"Today's assignment is to build a bridge or transport that will allow you to take the cart over from this side of the river to the other. There are various types of natural materials available around you and any tools you need will be made available."

Sam stood for a few minutes, trying to come up with a solution that didn't involve decimating a chunk of the woods. After some wandering, she found a couple of large dead, but not completely rotted, trees on the ground.

She cut the trees into two or three foot lengths using a chainsaw and placed them in the river, seating them so they were solid in the riverbed, but still stuck out a bit and were stable for walking on. They were also relatively close together.

Once she was finished with this, she wheeled the cart across on the makeshift road thing. She almost dumped the cart overboard a couple of times, but ended up making it across finally.
