Mr. Bormann's Classroom Web Site

Welcome to my Industrial Technology class!

This web site will be used as a tool to keep students up to date on classroom rules, policies and procedures, and provide them with valuable online resources. Because a class site should be engaging, I'll present photographs that show students engaging in interesting and fun activities. Many links are included so students can explore a wealth of ideas on the web.



Here are examples of the links I have included. Access to klockit.com, New Yankee Workshop, and leevalley.com
