Students will play a game where they act out breaking safety rules from the lab and their teams have to guess which rule is being broken. Teams will be assigned and choose a name and leader. The leader will provide the team's guesses and one student will act out the incorrect procedure while another records their guess. Teams earn points for each correct guess of the safety rule being broken. Sixteen common lab safety rules will be used in the game.

1. Safety Rules Charades
Students will choose one of the safety rules from a hat and then they must
act out the breaking of that rule. Student groups will then write down their
guesses on the small white boards to share with the class.
