What are proper and safe lab techniques?

Lab Safety

As a science teacher, one of your lessons early on in the school year should be the teaching of safe lab skills. Hot glassware, open flames and caustic chemicals are just a few of the dangers your students may face. Demonstrate proper techniques and safety procedures. Keep clutter down to a minimum. Provide students with ample time to accomplish their work without rushing, and teach your students how you would like them to respond should an accident occur.
