Bet students I can remove 1/4” of material from a wooden stock
without using any saw or cutting tool and have a decent finished edge.
Have students name each individual safety concern and the reason
behind when using different grades of sand paper. Not have student
answer a question more than once. Go over anything that may have
been missed.
Belt sander. Edge sander. Drum. Grit. Clockwise.
As instructor goes over each term, student should be writing
definitions in their handbook.
Procedure:
How much time will you spend on
individual parts of the lesson?
List steps necessary for using or
applying the tool or process.
Modeling/Explanation
Demonstration
Have student take out their projects, access where the majority of
the student’s stages are.
Have students continue to perform tasks on their projects.
Have students who are sanding and finishing up their projects to
come over to the edge sander for a demo.
(20 minutes)
Demonstration on edge sander.
Show the finished product of what the design of project should look
like on their pieces of wood after the finishing process on the edge
sander.
Go over the pros and cons of the edge sander
Go over some other techniques to use if edge sander is not the
correct machine for the job.
Emphasis the steps taken before the usage of edge sander.
Show how to properly sand the desired edges of the stock.
(5-10 minutes)
Have students return to their project and do what they need to do to
finish project. Some students may stay and use edge sander.
Class work time
(remainder of class)
Towards the end of class
-grab the rest of the class (and students who are ELL) who haven’t seen
the demo for the edge sander and notify them that they will need to
use this machine next class or in the following weeks. Demo will be
repeated to students who forgot by an advanced student
Do demo once again
(5-10 minutes)
Class clean up

Edge sander safety (handout)
Special Safety:
Any special safety precautions
Guided Practice:
Guided/Monitored Activity.
Application of knowledge,
classroom activities for students,
problem to solve, etc.
Demonstrate how to properly and safely sand material off wood
stock.
Observe in close quarters as each student sands their piece up
against the edge sander. Ask for advanced students to overlook edge
sander and assist others whom may be having difficulties.
Have students summarize what they just witnessed and learnt after
demonstration. Hi-light points that may have been missed.
Have the instructor or TA or helper go over any steps they may be
Accommodations: uncomfortable with. Demonstrate a second time on the edge sander
slowly to really emphasis the proper procedure of remove material.

board. (Handouts)
What did they find useful with the edge sander compared to using
band saw, hand sanding, or other methods of removing small amounts
of material off stock.
Check For Understanding
How was using the edge sander on the flat end different from using
(Questions):
the edge sander next to the drum to remove material?
How did the edge sander react to the end grain compared to the flat
Assessment/Feedback
grain?
What would happen if you lost control of your stock?
If you pressed too had against the belt, what would occur?

after lesson!
Notes for yourself
Visually observe if every student was able to safely sand material off
on edge sander. Mentally and physically note down engagement of
students.
This lesson covers another method to sand or remove small amounts of
material off stock. Check for understanding.
Check if every student was able to properly remove the correct
amount of material from stock
Was the student able to:
- Follow instructions
Self-check work
Go over pros and cons of the edge sander again, and how
difficult/easy was it for students to remove material. What other
methods can the students use, aside from the edge sander? When
and why would you use edge sander.
Go over steps once more to emphasis the main point of today’s lesson
to check for understanding and utilization.
