Dear Cathy,

Thanks for volunteering to clean up the science laboratory this afternoon. Usually, when a student does this for the first time, I go to the lab to show him or her exactly what to do. However, today I have a teacher’s staff meeting at 3:30, so I can’t be there. Still, I’m sure everything will be fine, since you have worked in the lab many times. Here is what you should do:

1. Clean all the glass containers that were used in class today.

2. After washing the containers, place them upside down on a towel to dry.

3. Wipe down all the worktables with a wet cloth.

4. Put all the microscopes that have been left out back on the equipment shelf.

5. Sweep the floor.

6. Put the trash outside the door.

7. Turn off the lights and lock the door when you leave.

If you have any questions, please ask Ms. Edwards in the classroom next door. You can return the key to me tomorrow when we have class at 10:30.

Thank you so much for your help!

- Mr. Marston
