Jack got to go on a school field trip to the Museum of Pop Culture and some zoo in Seattle. He got to go because he was in advanced wood shop. The band at the school go at the end of the year and so does the advance woodshop. This is an annual trip, but it is the first since COVID. Jack had a great time. He had plenty of pictures and stories to share when he returned.
Jack built two sheds this year in advance woodshop. The second time he joined Mr. Matson told him not to come until all the other students had done their safety test, blueprints and model shed. Once the class actually started building Jack came to help. He quickly realized he had more experience than the other kids and become a leader right away. His experience in advanced woodshop even made him stand out in regular woodshop because kids would ask him questions since they thought Mr. Matson was too scary. As much as Jack enjoyed building a shed, he says he does not want to be carpenter when he gets older. He wants an inside job.
