#4: A Safety Demonstration
It has got to be incredibly frustrating for teachers when they see students not following directions, especially in a potentially dangerous environment. Science experiments can go wrong in many different ways, so following safety procedures is critical. On top of worrying about their students’ safety, teachers also need to worry about being held responsible for any accidents.
This girl’s teacher had a brilliant way to instill the importance of safety. Once the students saw firsthand a possible outcome of not wearing safety goggles while working, it’s hard to imagine they ever forgot to consider safety measures again. This teacher sure knows how to make a splash – with acid, that is!
