| Assessing Progress | ||||||||||
| Students should be able to follow the directions necessary
to complete the exercise. This includes being able to use scissors, and
follow instructions. It helps to follow these rules. 1. Cut the outline border of the large square on Side A. 2. Flip it over. Fold the corners so that they line up with the edge of the square graphic. The result? A cool little folding exercise thing that looks pretty neat and you can take it home and make your folks or parental guardians ask, "What on earth is that?" You can punch a hole in it, put a string through it, and it becomes an ornament. |

He has worked as a installer for solar panels and is a journeyman electrician.
