Topics in Safety--Topic 2: Teaching Health and Safety through Science
School Science Review, v97 n360 p120-127 Mar 2016
Science teachers always teach students the safety precautions that are necessary to carry out practical work as safely as possible. This article suggests that teachers can use these opportunities to teach students about health and safety so that they both understand why such precautions are needed and how working safely can be applied beyond the science laboratory into everyday life. The article includes lots of practical examples.
