My Safety Story!
Becky was in the science lab working on an experiment that was heating a solution in an Erlenmeyer flask held with a ring clamp on a ring stand over a Bunsen burner. When the solution began to boil, she grabbed her beaker tongs to pick up the flask. But as she was taking it off the flame, she caught her sleeve on fire. She was in so much shock that she dropped flask and ran to the other side of the class and bundled herself up in the fire blanket like she was a burrito. But on her way, there she accidentally bumped over Patrice’s flask spilling it on to herself. But unfortunately, today was the first time she had ever forgotten to wear safety goggles. She walked over to the eye wash station at the front of the class. After Becky had all the fire out, she went over to room 201 to use the emergency shower to all the chemicals off her legs. Becky went back to her station to clean up her broken flask. She swept all the pieces into a dust pan and put it in the broken glass bin. Becky didn’t want to be late for her next class, so instead of telling the teacher that she hadn’t fully cleaned up the mess, she left. The next class did not know that there was still a mess on the ground they were walking on and destroyed their shoes from the corrosion.
Becky’s sleeve was flammable.
Definition: Easily set on fire.
The solution was corrosive.
Definition: Having the quality of corroding or eating away.
Fume Hood: Go out the room and take a right to room 201
Emergency Shower: Go out the room and take a right to room 201
Fire Alarm Pull: Go out the room and take left. Head to the stairs beside 209. The lever will be on the left side of the door way.
Mr. Robinson
You did a great job on your fictional safety story. I am sure glad that this was a fictional story and didn’t really happen in our class! You communicated your understanding of safety issues in the Science class and included a great map of the safety features of the classroom. Good work adding detail to your story. Don’t forget to add an ethical dilemma to the story where someone considers the morality around a certain practice.

I have a point for each “part” of this post and also the layout of it so I’ll separate my comment as such
Your story is very strait to the point and stays very close to the criteria, this is not an innately bad thing but I would have enjoyed it more if you had a little fun with it, and added a bit more of a creative flair to it, but I’m not a expert so maybe you did everything right idk.
I could properly understand what the signs meant form reading their part in the story, but maybe you could have also explained them outside the story as well? I don’t think it would really be needed though it’s just something that I think would look nice
The safety map is very well made and I don’t really see any way to improve it that would actually be necessary
The general design of the post isn’t very pleasing to the eye and maybe if you centered all the images and tried using the different text settings, I’ll also leave you a link to my text dividers if you would like to use those.
