This session gives teachers an inside look at how masonry skills are taught in both hands‑on and classroom settings. The morning begins with a live block‑laying demonstration, allowing participants to observe foundational masonry techniques in action. Later, instructors will guide teachers through classroom lesson plans, sharing how they train apprentices and how these methods can be adapted for high school programs. Attendees will leave with practical insights they can bring directly into their own classrooms.
