Hazards and Risks

For inquiry we learnt how to assess risks.

First we rated situations on risk levels like low, likely, possible, inpossible, elevated, and extreme. For example: The situation "using a lighter to check if the lawnmower has petrol" is an a extreme risk.

Next we wrote down three situations for each risk level and what might be the consequences.

I learnt how to use commen sense in risky situations and how to practise saftey to avoid danger.
