The science lab is a fun and exciting place for students. It’s where they get hands-on with science and learn how to conduct an experiment. For a science lab to effectively engage students in science, there must be clear and understandable lab safety rules to follow. It’s also a place with much potential for accidents.

When thinking about your curriculum, certain words always seem to go together — problem with solving, math and principles, but what you don’t often hear paired together is science and literacy. While you most often think of literacy as part of an English or reading curriculum, being able to read and write plays a massive role in science.

Science is about the facts, the data, and the experiments that prove a hypothesis that’s usually informed by something you already know. Even if it’s something you already encourage of your budding scientists, there may be methods for bolstering creative thinking in science education that could come in quite handy.
