Advance Shop- " Well the school year is down to "15" days for seniors and "34" for the rest of the kids."Again my main goal is to get everyone's project done, but it has to be functional and look good besides being done! Once your son/daughter has their project done they need to make arrangements to get it home and PAID FOR! So it is work everyday until the end of the school year.
General Shop- Again just finish up projects! That will be the focus for the remainder of the year. Most students are done with their night stands and they look good. I would like to get them all done before the end of the year. Just a reminder that the night stands cost $75.00. Please make checks payable to "McBain High School."
* Students in Shop class need to pay for their projects prior to taking them home unless other arrangements have been made with Mr. Koopman. I keep track of all money students bring in to class and they will receive a receipt from me.
* I also would like a picture of every one's project prior to it going home.
High School P.E- Be active and participate! Get dressed and be on time! That is all students need to do in order to get an "A".

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!
Parents: If your son/daughter is not doing well in shop class it is probably because they are not doing any work in class! SOME STUDENTS HAVE FINISHED THEIR CURRENT PROJECT AND NOW THINK THEY CAN SIT AROUND FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR! NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. Students can do "one" of the following"3" things to finish the year.
1. Help other students finish their project.
2. I have small "projects" things I need to "finish" or 'fix" for other teachers or community members that students can help me with and maintain a good grade.
3. If they are not graduating they can start a project for "next year" which a few students have done already. That is if they plan to take woodshop next year.
EVERYDAY IS WORTH 20 POINTS AND THEY ONLY GET THE POINTS IF THEY "ARE ON TIME", "WORK" AND "CLEAN-UP".
Advance Shop- On Monday I will be handing out cost figuring sheets so everyone can figure out what they owe for their project(s). It is time for Advance Shop students especially seniors to figure out what they owe and to pay their bill. Students for the rest of the week will be working on their projects. Or doing one of the above (3) so they get their points.
General Shop-The focus will be on getting all night stands done before the rest of the year. Most students have done an excellent job! General Shop also need to pay their shop bill as well. All nightstands cost $75.00.
"All projects if possible should be paid for with a check made out to McBain High School."
Students can pay with cash. I also will give each student a receipt for any money I receive.
High School P.E- Students who are doing poorly in class "are not dressing, are tardy or don't participate! The plan for the week is try and incorporate the weight room into the 1st hour P.E class on Tuesday's and Thursday's. Resuming the Physical Training of push-ups, sit-ups and running.

Hope everyone has a Great Easter! Good Friday is this Friday the 18th of April. No school on Friday!
Monday is a 2 hour delay with Rambler Time!
Seniors are on the senior trip this week! Have fun! Only 20 days left of school for the seniors when they return.
Advance Shop- REAL SIMPLE! Seniors need to finish projects and pay for them before they leave. The school year is rapidly coming to an end. All students need to be thinking about finishing their project and getting it paid for before the end of the year. A reminder that all students will get receipt from me showing how much they have paid. If possible have students pay with a check made out to "McBAIN HIGH SCHOOL". STUDENTS WHO ARE FINISHED OR ARE GOING TO FINISH WITH THEIR PROJECT PRIOR TO THE END OF THE YEAR STILL NEED TO WORK ON SOMETHING. IT COULD BE HOMEWORK, HELPING SOMEONE ELSE OR MAKING ANOTHER PROJECT. Not just sitting around doing nothing!
General Shop- Like I've said before there are some nice projects being made ( night stands)! Just like the Advance Shop students the General Shop students need to get their project done,paid for and taken home. Just a reminder that all night stands cost $75.00 dollars! If possible please pay with a check made out to" McBain High School". Students who are done with their night stands need to stay busy making another small project, making something they could work on next year if they plan to take shop, or help me or someone else.
High School P.E- Get dressed, participate, be on time and be respectful! That is all I ask for inorder for your son/daughter to get an "A". Students who are failing or doing poorly can not handle the simple "3" task above! Some exercise and some fun activities is the class.

Welcome Back!
I hope everyone had a relaxing Spring Break and a safe break one too!
I took the family to Florida and had a good time. I went fishing and had some success. My son Jarrett and I caught some Spanish Mackerel and Pompano two very good eating fish according to the Florida fishing wise. Jarrett caught a very nice Red fish too. While in Florida I seen some Dolphins and Sea Turtles. On Wednesday the family and I went to watch the Blue Angels train and it was terrific. If you are ever in the Pensacola area visit the National Naval Aviation Museum. and watch the Blue Angels train. It is free and absolutely impressive. The Blue Angels are virtually right in front and over your head when the train. The museum is there as well, all at the Pensacola Naval Base! A must see!!!1
Wow 9 and a 1/2 weeks left of school! Seniors only have 5 weeks or 25 days of school.This is not counting the Senior Trip.
Advance Shop- Like I mentioned above seniors only have 25 days of school. They need to get projects done and paid for prior to them (students) being done and the project going home. This week I will go about setting goals with each student in advance shop and how we/ they need to meet that goal through out the week. Parents help me by encouraging your son/daughter to get focused on their project so it gets done and paid for before the end of the school year. Make sure all checks are made out to "McBain High School".
General Shop- Down to the home stretch! A reminder that all nighstands cost $75.00 and it needs to be paid in full prior to the project going home. General shop students please make sure all checks are made out to "McBain High School". There have been some very nice projects made this year using different woods and I think parents will be pleasantly surprised. Students once done with their nighstand will have to finish the year with a smaller project or a start a bigger one and work on it coming next year.
High School P.E- Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are back to Physical Fitness days! Tuesdays and Thursdays are going to continue to be activity days. Some students are not passing simply because they are not dressing and/or participating! Again each day is worth 20 points!
