New Resources for 2026–Q2

A pen-and-paper Material Take Off series was added for students to practice material estimation (3 different projects with 3 Levels of difficulty for each one

6 module Study Guides added. These are single- or multi-page visual resources that summarize each module and its concepts and are great for review.

14 Module Exams were added. These are module-wide tests that cover the contents of a group of lessons – each one includes a few questions from each lesson.

 

5 new project builds/activities were added

  • Hingebox Cube – for cabinet hinge adjustment practice
  • Pasta Tower – an early program icebreaker and team-building exercise
  • Concrete Paver – a concrete form activity and add-on option for the MiniBox table
  • Folding Table – a challenging furniture assembly project with moving parts
  • MiniBox Table – A multistage table project using the 2×6 minibox 

There have been 6 new models added for skills exercises – now you can show students a good example of what they will make before the project starts.

QR codes have been added to select student and instructor skills exercises that point to the 3d models for easy reference.

Instructor versions of all skills exercises have been added with teacher-only features and enhancements, including relevant competencies, material and tool counts, and, in some cases, instructor notes. 

Because our original 3D Model area in Google Sites was not very accessible to everyone, our links to the 3D models for Roofs, Floors, and the Solar Roof Install have been moved to a more user-friendly location.

The new web-based MyTeach platform was launched to replace the old GSheet libraries and add research and find functions for resources.  This is a teachers-only interface and a major upgrade for building out your courses with TEACH resources.
