An introduction to Chemistry: The analogy of the Atom as lego

  

An analogy for Atoms, Compounds and Formula, drawn by SN This video is the first in the series for beginner Chemistry. In this video, I use the analogy of the atom as units very much like "lego bricks". This analogy was first used by researchers in MIT.

Safety

 MAKE A POSTER SHOWING   SUMMARY OF ALL THE RULES

and have a look at this standard science safety quiz

1. 
































                         WHMIS -  WORKPLACE HAZARDOUS 

                         MATERIALS INFORMATION
                         SYSTEM 

      THESE symbols are on the MSDS sheet for
       all chemicals    Materials safety Data Sheet. 

THESE ARE MY SCIENCE SAFETY RULES:

1. Follow teacher instructions
a.     If you wish to change instructions, check with teacher
b.     If you break anything or get hurt, report it REPORT ACCIDENTS

2.     .No horseplay, fooling around
3.     Keep yourself safe
a.     Hair tied back, no loose clothing, shoes are closed
b.     If chemicals get on skin, use water
c.     Use eyewash if anything gets in eyes

a.     your work area is neat and organized
b.     you have your lab instructions
c.     aware of fire safety and chemical safety

5.     Keep the classroom safe
a.     Carry materials in a safe way
b.     Aware of fire safety procedure
c.     Don’t remove any experiments from the classroom
d.     Don’t do experiments without first checking with teacher.

a.     never assume the temperature of something.  Take precautions
b.     hot beaker and cold beaker look identical
c.     always point a test tube away from everyone
d.     when smelling a chemical, waft.

You will create safety rules by reading and summarizing the safety procedures in your poster

The rules can be under the following categories:
HIGHEST PRIORITIES:

THESE RULES CAN BE SUMMED UP LIKE THIS
      Talk to the instructor                     

KEEP ORGANIZED AND SAFE
Keep the classroom safe
Keeping your work area safe
Keep safe with your colleagues
Keep yourself safe
KNOW THE SYMBOLS
Know the correct symbols, WHIMIS symbols


COMMUNICATE AND REACT TO AN EMERGENCY
     be familiar with emergency procedures for fire, toxins, spills, and evacuation  


SAFETY ASSIGNMENT: . Make a poster of the safety rules 

Make a safety poster which is 
Exceptionally creative and it stands out  It includes all the WHMIS symbols and all the science SAFETY rules listed above . It is done in colour and ink  22-25/25

Your poster is very creative and artistic and includes all the WHMIS symbols and all the science rules . It is done in pencil  18-21 

all the WHMIS symbols and all the science rules . It is mostly done and needs a bit extra work 10-15

This is a good start and seems like a great draft. It needs more time to complete it. 0-10
