Hard or soft wood? — Carpenters · The Makers
Master Rowan opens the timber store of Alderbrook workshop. The Makers of Our World game on MyLeoNes for ages 7–17; invented stories, crafts learned safely.
Your task
Sort each tree into hardwood or softwood.
- Hardwoods come from broad-leaved trees and are often dense. Softwoods come from cone-bearing trees and are usually lighter.
- Invented guild stories to learn from. Never try fire, hot metal, glass, blades or power tools on your own: crafts like these are learned with a trained adult.
- Every craft came from many people in many places. Nothing about you is collected.
Score
- Craft knowledge — You understood how this craft works.
- Making it well — You put the steps in a sensible order and used the right tools.
- Care for people & planet — You kept people safe and used materials wisely.
In real life
The words hard and soft describe the kind of tree, and some softwoods are actually harder than some hardwoods.
Carpenters
The guild stories are invented, to learn from. Fire, heat, blades and tools are only for trained adults: learn these crafts with a trained adult, never at home. Nothing about you is collected; progress stays on this device.
