Science Safety Tip
Practice what you teach. Teachers please wear personal safety equipment, PPE, when students are working in the lab. The teacher wearing the PPE will set the tone for safe practices in the laboratory.

Science Funnies!
Code.org
Code.org has developed a curriculum that allows even the youngest students to explore the limitless world of computing - at no cost for schools. The courses blend online, self-guided and self-paced tutorials with “unplugged” activities that require no computer at all. Each course consists of about 20 lessons that may be implemented as one unit or over the course of a semester. Even kindergarten-aged pre-readers can participate. The workshop lasts 6 hours and will prepare participants to teach the Code Studio courses for grades K-8. Workshop attendees will receive a bag of Code.org swag, PD certificate, and printed curriculum guide containing course lesson plans. Participants will also receive a certificate of completion, as well as the opportunity to order classroom supplies for the unplugged activities.
Snacks and beverages will be provided. Caddo Parish Public Schools Elementary Science Department will offer 6 CLUs.
