COOPERATIVE LAB GROUPS










PUZZLE LAB
IT IS IMPORTANT FOR STUDENTS ARE ABLE TO WORK IN GROUPS IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH A GOAL. THE STUDENTS HAD TO WORK AS A TEAM IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THE PUZZLE. THEY FIRST HAD TO WORK ON THE PUZZLE WITH NO TALKING AND THEN DO IT WITH TALKING. THEY COMPLETED THE LAB THEY LOOKED AT THE DATA TO COMPARE AT WHAT METHOD WAS THE BEST FOR TEAM WORK. ALL LAB GROUPS DID THE BEST WITH TALKING. SO THE 2010-2011 6TH GRADE CLASS IS OFF TO A GREAT START FOR THE YEAR.

SAFETY IN LABS

Posted by Picasa
LAB SAFETY IN THE CLASSROOM
Safety Rules: 1 - Always wear safety goggles whenever you are working with chemicals or other substances that might get into your eyes.
2 - Never reach across a flame.
3 - Immediately notify your teacher if any chemical gets on your skin or clothing to find out what to do to clean it off.
4 - Never look directly into a test tube when mixing or heating chemicals.
5 - Always point a test tube away from you and others when heating it over a flame or other heat source.
6 - Never smell a chemical directly from the container. Wave your hand over the opening of the container and “waft” the fumes towards your nose.
7 - Never taste a chemical unless you are instructed by your teacher to do so.
8 - Always clean up your work area and equipment after an experiment is completed. Equipment must be returned to its proper place.
9 - Read and follow all directions exactly as they are written. If in doubt, ask your teacher for help!
10 - Never mix chemicals (or perform tests) without your teacher’s permission.
11 - Never mix chemicals without your teacher’s permission.
12 - Never run (or push someone else) in the lab. (I let the kids know this rule applies at all times!)
13 - Keep lids on bottles and containers when not in use.
14 - Never use broken or chipped glassware.
15 - Keep your work area clean and keep all materials (clothing, hair, papers, etc.) away from a flame or heat source.
16 - Always clean up your work area and equipment after an experiment is completed Equipment must be returned to its proper place.
17 - Immediately notify your teacher if you get cut or have another injury when performing an experiment.
