Laughing It Safe: 20 Lab Safety Memes for a Humorous Approach to Science Safety

Lab safety is a serious issue in the fields of science and research . Lab safety memes , on the other hand, are a cutting-edge craze that mixes knowledge with entertainment. Scientists and students alike are drawn to these comical pictures that appear to communicate a serious message while also efficiently delivering important safety information.

There are several potential dangers in lab settings, including high-voltage equipment and caustic substances. Historically, safety procedures have been explained through somber lectures and dull manuals. However, the introduction of lab safety memes adds humor to the mix, making safety precautions more enduring and relevant.

These funny memes often feature witty captions combined with images from popular culture, creating a fusion that resonates with the science community. They provide a mental shortcut, associating safety precautions with memorable visuals and phrases. Moreover, sharing these memes has become a way for scientists to bond over a common experience, fostering a sense of community and shared responsibility.

Lab safety memes , on the other hand, are a novel trend that mixes knowledge and fun. Both scientists and students are drawn to these seemingly amusing graphics because they efficiently communicate important safety information while also making people smile.

4 Engaging Lab Safety Activities

The back-to-school year in science class usually involves a unit on lab safety. However, after students have been exposed to the rules of staying safe in the lab, finding new ways to engage students in lab safety activities can be challenging. 

If you are a science teacher looking for new ways to keep students interested in lab safety, check out these ideas below: 

Fun Lab Safety Activities

1. zombie college lab safety video:.

Students are always interested in zombies, so why not integrate them into your lab safety unit? 

This video from Zombie College includes a video about what can happen when lab safety procedures aren’t followed. 

In addition to the10 minute  lab safety video, there is a video game, student materials including: 

• word scramble
• 5 rules of lab safety worksheet

and a music video on the 5 rules of lab safety. 

This website can fulfill all your teaching needs depending on how long you need to spend going over ways to stay safe in your classroom laboratory. 

Note to teacher : While I have shown this video to grade 7 and 8 students, please view it first to decide if it is appropriate for your student audience. 

2. Student Created Video Lab Safety Activity

• Identifying the chosen lab safety rule
• State reasons why it is important to follow this rule in the classroom.

3. Lab Safety Review Game

• Equipment and practice
• Fire, Chemicals, and Goggles, Oh My! 
• Lab Procedures
• Random Science Safety

"Eye" Know Lab Safety Activity

This lab activity will integrate the safety rules into a fun experiment. This activity would engage students on the first days of school or as an introduction to your lab safety unit. 

Many students may not understand the need for goggles in the classroom. This eye protection lab uses: 

• Petri dishes

to teach students the importance of keeping their eyes safe during lab experiences. 

To complete this science experiment,

• use the marker to draw an eyeball at the bottom of the Petri dish. 
• Then, put one egg white in each of the dishes. 
• Pour water into one dish. 
• Pour alcohol into the other dish. 

This activity will excite students while teaching them about the importance of lab safety. 

Are you looking  for more activities to use with your students? This unit includes unique ways to teach students to stay safe in the science laboratory and classroom. It includes classroom decor and activities to introduce, teach, and reinforce concepts related to safety.

Lab Safety Meme Poster Project

What educators are saying

Description.

Looking for some way to teach those boring old lab safety rules? Add a cupful of creativity, a pinch of sarcasm, and a handful of internet memes...and Voila! You've got a fun, simple, and engaging way to teach lab safety with the Lab Safety Meme Poster Project.

Getting students into the lab is a vital part of science learning, but keeping all those eager students safe is a tough job; so lab safety must be taught. Once students are aware of the lab safety rules set in your classroom, introduce them to the meme project and let them get those creative juices flowing. Memes consider the consequences of certain behaviors, so they are a perfect platform for rules.

Students can utilize tech tools, such as Google Slides and Powerpoint to create their memes and easily send them to you! If available at your school, students would love to see their memes printed and hanging in their lab area.

Included are instructions to students, an example created by the author, and a scoring rubric which includes criteria for students to evaluate themselves and their partner.

Have fun and stay safe!
