| Steps of Scientific Methods | ||
| #1 | To gather and record information during the experiment. | Collect data |
| #2 | What you think based on observations and prior knowledge. Is testable and measurable | Hypothesis |
| #3 | The results of your experiment. What you found out | Draw a conclusion |
| #4 | First step of the scientific method | Ask a question |
| #5 | Procedure to test the hypothesis. Step by step | Conduct the experiment |
| Vocabulary | ||
| #1 | Using senses to obtain information. | Observation |
| #2 | What you think will happen in the experiment, must be testable and measurable | Hypothesis |
| #3 | What I now know from the experiment. What I learned from the experiment | Conclusion |
| #4 | What you think based on observations | Inference |
| #5 | Any factor that can change during an experiment | variable |
| Hypothesis | ||
| #1 | What two things make a good hypothesis for an experiment? | testable and measurable |
| #2 | What part of the scientific method does the hypothesis answer? | The question |
| #3 | Hypothesis: The frog likes to hang out in the water bowl. | not testable or measurable |
| #4 | Hypothesis: It takes 231 licks to get to the center of a Tootsiepop. | testable and measurable :-) |
| #5 | Hypothesis: The plant will grow moare leaves when it is given fertilizer weekly | testable and measurable :-) |
| Diagram and Models | ||
| #1 | Name a rule of a scientific diagram. | must be labeled |
| #2 | Name a rule of a scientific diagram. | neatly drawn |
| #3 | Name a rule of a scientific diagram. | arrows must touch the object |
| #4 | How is a scientific diagram different than a regular drawing? | |
| #5 | Why do scientist use a model of Earth? | |
