GHS Pictogram Clipart – Glitter Design for Chemistry Classrooms & Craf

GHS Pictogram Cliparts Glitter Design for Chemistry Classrooms, Crafts and Materials PNG If you’ve ever found the standard GHS (Globally Harmonized System) pictograms a bit too plain or uninspiring for your teaching materials, you’re not alone. That’s exactly why I decided to redesign them with a fresh twist. These 18 cliparts—9 in portrait and 9 in landscape format—combine the clarity of the official hazard symbols with a visually striking glitter effect. The colors remain true to the original system (red border, black symbol), but the glitter gives them a unique and eye-catching feel. I created each of these cliparts by hand in Procreate, with the classroom in mind. They’re still clearly recognizable as hazard pictograms, but they add a touch of design that fits beautifully into worksheets, posters, or digital resources. Ways you might use these in your classroom or materials: – Labeling chemical containers in a more engaging way – Gluing into student chemistry notebooks to support safety topics – Decorating posters or bulletin boards about lab safety rules – Enhancing worksheets or lab instructions visually – Adding to PowerPoint, Keynote, or Genially presentations – Integrating into digital learning platforms or safety training resources – Using them in flashcards for visual reinforcement Since you’ll receive both portrait and landscape versions (in PNG format with transparent backgrounds), you can easily adjust them to your layout or format. Whether you're printing or working digitally, the designs remain sharp and flexible. These glitter-style symbols were made to support safety awareness while also respecting visual design preferences—especially for teachers or students who appreciate a bit more flair in their materials. Usage rights: You may use the cliparts both privately and commercially within educational content, as long as your own contribution is clearly visible. Please do not resell the graphics individually. Wishing you lots of creativity while designing your materials, – Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and welcoming learning environment. 🐶

Static Electricity Experiments for Elementary School
Physics, Science, Grade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Labs, Experiments, Activities
What is electrostatics, or static electricity? The buildup of electric charge on an object's surface is called static electricity, or electrostatics. This charge, which can be either positive or negative, is produced when a material's atoms acquire or lose electrons. When two objects rub against one another, electrons are transferred from one to the other, creating this static energy. As a result, one of the materials has a negative charge due to an excess of electrons, while the other material has a positive charge due to a lack of electrons. The feeling of a tiny electric shock after stepping on a rug and then contacting a metal surface is a typical example. Ten extremely basic and doable experiments that use or create static electricity are included in this useful e-book. Every experiment is safe and may be carried out using normal, commonplace items. Every experiment has comprehensive, step-by-step instructions. Lastly, each experiment is given a brief explanation so that elementary school pupils can understand it. Have fun exploring the marvels of static electricity through experimentation!

Easter Chemistry Bunting A Fun & Educational Decoration for Your Science Classroom! 🐰🔬 I love decorating my classroom for different seasons, but I also want my decorations to be educational and useful. That’s why I created this Easter Chemistry Bunting—it brings a bit of spring energy into the classroom while helping students get familiar with the periodic table! Each pennant features an element symbol, name, and atomic number, so students see and recognize them every day—without even thinking about it. It’s such a simple way to reinforce learning while brightening up the room! 🌸 Why This Works So Well in Class ✔ No extra work for you – Just print, cut, and hang. ✔ Students see chemistry every day – Without pressure, they start recognizing elements naturally. ✔ Festive, but not distracting – A bit of color and seasonal fun, while still focused on learning. ✔ Perfect for any science room – Whether in a chemistry class, lab, or hallway, it works anywhere. ✔ Easy to use in lessons – You can even make it interactive with a classroom game! 📌 What’s Included? 📜 127 Printable Pennants – One for each element, showing: ✔ Symbol ✔ Name ✔ Atomic Number 🎨 Colorful, Easter-Themed Designs – Cheerful and bright, but still focused on learning. 🖨 Easy to Print & Adjust – Scale it to fit your classroom space. 📎 Two Hanging Options: ✔ String them together for a banner. ✔ Attach with fasteners for a flexible display. 💡 Ideas for Using It in Class 1️⃣ Print and cut the pennants. 2️⃣ Hang them up in your classroom, hallway, or science lab. 3️⃣ Use them for a quick challenge – Call out an atomic number, and students find the right pennant! 💡 Another idea: Assign an element to each student and have them share a fun fact about it. 🐣 Why Other Teachers Like It ✔ “Students actually look at it and ask about elements—great conversation starter!” ✔ “A simple way to make the classroom feel more engaging.” ✔ “No prep, looks great, and makes chemistry more visible every day.” 🔬 Bring Chemistry into Your Easter Decorations! Instead of just hanging up generic classroom decorations, why not make them meaningful? This bunting adds a touch of spring while keeping students engaged with science. 🚀 Try it out and see how it works in your classroom! 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and inspiring learning environment. 🐶✨
