Science Lab Safety Rules Poster
Your assignment is to create a poster depicting lab situations where rules are NOT being followed. You
should refer to the Lab Safety handout which lists the rules in 6 Categories.
Choose a rule from each of the 6 categories and show that rule NOT being followed. The poster may
have several situations occurring at once just like a typical lab room or it could have several panels like a
comic strip. The poster should be easy to interpret and humorous.
The graphics of the poster should be done in color and the rules that you choose should be listed on the
poster. The poster should be done on a poster board supplied by your teacher.
Have fun!
