White Glue Construction Cut materials to size. For this project precut all wooden pieces to length before class so that all the students have to do is assemble them in class. Using a hand saw will take much longer but the result will be the same. If using a hand saw, try using a mitre box to help make your cuts accurate.
Dimensions given above are actual sizes.
Depending on the quality of the wood, you should get approximately 30 dreidels from each 2x2x8. Sand all cut pieces to remove any splinters and rough edges to preclude a student getting a splinter in class. Again sand to smooth. In class the students will place a small drop of white glue into the hole you predrilled and insert the wooden dowel. Next you need to create label strips that the students will attach themselves to the dreidel.
