1.03 Apply safety procedures in the laboratory and in field studies:

• Recognize potential hazards.

• Manipulate materials and equipment.

• Conduct appropriate procedures.

TLW demonstrate knowledge of lab safety rules and procedures.

TLW identify potential hazards and implement appropriate safety procedures when conducting scientific investigations.

Time: 3-5 days

Materials:
