Our 2nd graders had a blast practicing weaving and creating tiny bags and were so excited to have access to a handmade loom. Our 3rd graders have been using the chomp saws in the classroom to create cardboard animal sculptures and they have so enjoyed the opportunity to use these tools that make cutting a breeze!
