Safety, Safety, Safety Let's Be Safe

Hello Parents. This week we are learning about safe practices during field and laboratory investigations. It is important that your child understand safety labels and important safety equipment. We have been learning how to use safety precautions while conducting laboratory investigations. The TEKS state that the student should demonstrate safe practices during field and laboratory investigations.


Kid’s Korner for Big Kids is a great site for you and your child to explore to learn about safety symbols and their meanings. This site also contains other great links to sites that also deal with different types of safety.

A great fun video to watch about lab safety rules and proper lab atire can be found at The Lab Safety Games. Watch three groups compete in an experiment and watch how they use proper lab safety.


There is a great list of lab safety rules found at Mr. Thackwray’s Lab Safety Rules. This site has great pictures to go along with each safety tip.
