When supply issues caused a roofing project for Nathaniel Morton Elementary School in Plymouth, Mass., to take place this fall, school officials took advantage of the situation to teach students about the construction trades.
As reported in WickedLocal.com, the elementary school held a "Nathaniel Morton Builds Day" last week to celebrate the trades, teach students about roofing and what exactly was happening over their heads. Parent volunteers in the construction fields visited to talk with students about their respective fields, from electricians to homebuilders and more. Students were given their own yellow hardhats to wear while rotating through various work stations.
