If you are not sure what to do during a lab activity:

• guess
• change lab partners
• ask a teacher
• just sit quietly and do nothing

Keeping your work area neat and clean is important because:

• My teacher is a neat-freak
• I won't lose my supplies in the clutter.
• It keeps the room from looking messy.
• It helps prevent accidents.

Disrupting other students in the laboratory with horseplay in the lab is:

• helpful.
• allowed
• dangerous.
• the quickest way to do a job.

At the end of the lab you see some leftover chemical that looks just like the stuff you were using.  You should:

• put the chemical back in the jar it came from.
• sweep it into your hand and throw it out.
• tell the teacher so you can dispose of it properly.
• tell your classmates that your lab partner is really messy.
