Conclusion:

5. Science Safety
I will act in a safe manner. I will not misbehave in the laboratory or play with laboratory equipment or materials. I will not engage in behavior that is disruptive or dangerous or that interferes with another student’s right to learn.
I will protect my eyes, face, and hands while engaging in lab activities by wearing safety goggles and, when needed, gloves or other protective gear, when instructed to do so.
I will work only at my assigned station with the materials assigned to my group.

6. Science Safety
I will follow all written and oral instructions. I will wait until I receive my teacher’s permission to begin a lab activity.
I will not carry out unassigned lab experiments without my teacher’s permission.
I will not eat, drink, or taste anything in the laboratory. This includes food and drink as well as chemicals.

7. Science Safety
I will wash my hands thoroughly after using chemicals and lab equipment. When using chemicals or working with live specimens, I will not touch my mouth, lips, or eyes until after I have washed my hands.
I will report any injury or accident to my teacher immediately.
I will clean up my lab station properly at the end of all lab activities.

8. Science Safety
I understand that failure to comply with these guidelines may result in my being removed from class and that I will lose credit for the work that is done during my absence.

Reminders
SAFETY GLASSES ON!
Waft – Smell carefully
Leave materials from the front counter AT THE FRONT COUNTER
Or return them right away!
Don’t forget to measure and record TEMPERATURES
Optional
Record/Video the chemical reactions (some happen quickly)

10. Chemical Reactions Lab – Clean Up
Clean all materials and set out to dry
Arrange materials neatly (so Mr. Bachmeier can easily see that everything is present)
Wipe lab counters with a sponge
Rinse the sponge a couple times to get rid of the chemical residue
Wash hands with soap and water
When your lab station is clean:
Work on the Lab Set-Up diagram
Begin your conclusion
Only if you have all the data collected
