Instructional Ideas
- Hand out to your science class before they enter the lab for the first time, or during the first week of school
- Blow up some of the rules pages that pertain to your lab, and use them as posters for kids to reference throughout the year
- Project the charts onto a whiteboard and have kids fill them out as a class
Classroom Considerations
- The last page of the assessment references a photo and a video, neither of which are available (the photo is extremely dark and hard to see)
Pros
- Pictures of symbols are vivid, and come with explanations that are easy to understand
- Assessment addresses topics that are relevant to any science class
Cons
- None
