Laboratory safety is paramount for every teacher in every science classroom. Communicating to students and modeling safe lab practices are requisite actions from the very first day of school and every day that follows.
It’s not always easy for students to understand the importance of lab safety or master the techniques needed in class. As classrooms become more diverse, the need for critical materials in languages other than English grows in importance.
Carolina offers a general laboratory agreement and course specific agreements in Spanish as well as English to ensure both students and parents understand the necessity for classroom lab safety.
Science Lab Safety Agreements
Lab Safety Video
Let students see lab behavior dos and don’ts in our Lab Safety Video. Show it early in the year or before each lab as a reminder of safe and acceptable lab behavior.
Lab Safety Equipment
If you need a quick reference for lab safety equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE), we can help there too with our Lab Safety Buying Guide and online library of Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for all the chemicals we sell.
General Lab Safety Information
We offer a library of general lab safety articles and student activities at our Carolina Knowledge Center. You’ll find links to articles on teacher responsibilities, safe chemical storage, chemical hygiene plans, and more. We’re here to help and only an email away at product@carolina.com.
