Middle School Science Minute

HAND AND POWER TOOL SAFETY
I was recently reading the December, 2014 issue of "Science Scope," a magazine written for middle school science teachers, published by the National Science Teachers Association.
In this issue, I read an article entitled "Scope on Safety" which includes the Science Safety Question of the Month. The article is written by Ken Roy, Director of Environmental Science for the Glastonbury, Connecticut Public Schools. This month's question is:
"I have little experience in working with hand and power tools but have been assigned a STEM class that requires their use. Is there a resource available to help me review hand- and power-tool safety?"
