No worries, don't feel silly. Many people don't know what woodburning is!
I shall explain.
Wood Burning is more formally known as Pyrography.
Pyrography means "writing with fire" and is the traditional art of using a heated tip or wire to burn or scorch designs onto natural materials such as wood or leather. Burning can be done by means of a modern solid-point tool (similar to a soldering iron) or hot wire tool, or a more basic method using a metal implement heated in a fire, or even sunlight concentrated with a magnifying lens.
In this case, I simply used the tool that resembles a soldering iron.
I also used colored pencil for the colors.
