Safety Considerations:

 Discuss with students the correct use of

scissors i.e. how to pass them, don’t run
with them, use them appropriately
 Discuss with students correct science
room etiquette no running inside, no
yelling (inside voices), put hand up etc.
 Discuss correct and safe digital citizenship
when using iPads.
