We use plastic bags and paper towel in the bag and staple across the bag about 1/3 the way down the bag. wet the paper and place seeds on the staples and sticky tape to the window and watch them grow. This way they can see the roots as they grow . When they are big we then put them in milk cartons a...

So Glad we are back on line can't work without the chemtalker out there

We also use Go Link as well as Vernier they work well ring RAY at Scientrific on 0458 664 584 he is very good with them

you are sooo funny lol

I have the word he is on the list Not to be used again in DEC school
Look out for him in non DEC schools
Stephen Nugent HT was on leave I believe when the now X Teacher was at the school

Your right Lisa
I wonder if there is a DO NOT EMPLOY list for Teachers, if so lets put him on the top of the list

All I can say is Steve Nugent will be livered (he is the HT I think he is on leave)
That Teacher will never work there again and I think not at any other State school.

I agree take him out of schools all together as hem might turn up at some other school and who knows what he might do next

Why is the casuanl teacher doing a prac anyway
at my school no casual teacher can do pracs unless Science Trained and then it is only if we think the teacher is good and has been at the school in Science before

We had a little rat a few years ago that looked like a Panda it was sooo cute.
Rats are so clean and are so cute.

Hi macca I have days like that I glad I am not the only one :redcard: Here the Teachers have to get every little thing done so I have 6 labs and 8 teachers all doing pracs every lesson and some even in a classroom :mad: :mad: . Retirment is looking good 3 terms and 4 weeks :wub: :wub: to go but whos...

I got mine from Science Supply last year it is a Labec made in Australia and it is great It is Stainless Steel with two shelves 43lt just the right size.
and cost $1,545.00 I love it

I just had a quick read of the Labels section no wonder the DEC will take 5 years to get this going .
I am glad you said light reading 102 pages just on one thnig lots of tea or coffee please.

Who did you buy the test tube from are they new ones as it may be a problem with the supplier as some suppliers bring them in from China and they are not up to our standards.

I use chux and toss them when they get too dirty

WH&S ( OH&S)
never open the plates you never know what is in them.
I would tell the teacher if she opens them then she can dispose of them in the propper manner.as you should not touch them if they have been opened.

Love it I think I will print it off and put iit in my Prep room

I use modelling clay (it has never gone hard) and put it in an ice cream container with the lid on.
It comes in lots of colours I got mine from Q Stores so maybe smartbuy is the same thing

Great Prac will use this one
