We are continuing learning to sketch this week. We have already begun learning to draw orthographic projection (multiview drawings), which are one of the most important concepts to understand in a first engineering course. I want to spend a couple of more class periods because of the importance of this to our engineering; because it has critical links to your geometry classes; and because it is relatively new and difficult to grasp for many students. Spending more time here now will make some other material later in the year go faster.
IED students will have a quiz on Tuesday/Wednesday. I will have an object for you to sketch and will have some questions regarding the terminology of orthographic projection. Know where the views are located and the directions of height, width, and depth in a multiview drawing.
Finally, don't forget about the ribbon cutting/open house Monday night. All students, parents, and other interested parties are invited to attend a ribbon cutting of our awesome new building at 5:30. At 6:00 there will be a short PTSA meeting, and then parents are invited to walk through your child's schedule beginning at 6:30. We will have 10 minutes per class period with a short passing period in between. I hope to see you there and look forward to meeting you.
