I understand students will be removed from the science activity area by the teacher if: their personal appearance or dress is such that they can cause injury to themselves or other students. they are behaving in such a manner that they cause injury to themselves or other students. they are not following the prescribed safety rules for the science activity area or the particular science activity being conducted. they are going beyond the limits of the science activity into areas that may lead to an unsafe situation. they have not completed the pre-experiment activities that will allow them to work safely in the laboratory. www.
