KEEP THE FUN OF
PHYSICS SAFE
As in all science courses,
lab safety needs to be the
top priority for teachers and
students. In the physics lab in
particular, the wide range of
topics requires an assortment of
unique equipment—projectile
launchers, springs, pendulums,
carts, lasers and rockets—that
may tend to encourage careless
playfulness.
While having fun is an integral
part of learning, it’s important
to maintain a safety mindset
when working in the lab. Physics
teachers need to be aware that
students’ creative imaginations
can lead to some inventive
though dangerous “fun
and games.”
Following instructions and safety
procedures is mandatory; and
it’s essential that teachers lead
by example. Keep physics fun,
but keep the fun of physics safe.
