Making Choices: Lab Safety Booklet

It's time for back-to-school safety! This booklet is a print-and-go activity (or simply upload to a student portal as a PDF) for lab safety. Students read through and make choices on how to be safe in the lab. When they make incorrect choices, they come to a "Reteaching" page that describes the lab safety rule. Students are congratulated on acting safely when they have successfully navigated the lab scenario.

This could be used as an introduction to safety protocols, but would likely be better used as a review activity at the beginning of the school year.

This product includes the following safety rules:

⚪disposal of solids

⚪no food or drink in lab

⚪entering the lab

⚪broken glassware disposal

⚪retrieving heated glassware

⚪hot glassware & cold water

⚪chemical contamination (replacing excess into the original container)

⚪chipped/cracked glassware

⚪smelling chemicals

⚪safety goggles

⚪cutting with scalpels

Nitrogen and Carbon Cycle Foldable

I was inspired to create foldables for my 6th graders on the carbon and nitrogen cycles after viewing one created by the blog " The Inspired Classroom ". She had created a much cuter one for the water cycle. Please forgive my pictures, descriptions, and handwriting. :) If you would like a free copy of the nitrogen foldable or carbon foldable , you can find it at My Teachers Pay Teachers.
