The science laboratory is an enjoyable, exciting place to work or learn.  It must also be a safe place.  I agree to conduct myself well while in the lab.  I agree to follow my teacher's instructions at all times and follow the safety rules listed below:

1. I will always get my teacher's permission before beginning a lab activity.
2. I will never run, push, or play in the lab.
3. I will never eat or drink anything in the lab.
4. I will always use care when working with unknown substances. 
   
   This means: 
   
    * I will never touch anything without the teacher's permission. 
    * I will never smell any substance without my teacher's permission. 
    * I will never taste any substance without my teacher's permission. 
    
5. I will always use care when I handle lab equipment. 
   
   This means: 
   
   * I will be careful with glassware.  I will report all chipped or cracked glass to the teacher. 
   * I will report any glass breakage to the teacher. 
   * I will learn the location and proper use of the safety equipment in the lab.
    
6. I will always report any accident to my teacher immediately.
