The Scientific Method!

Hey hey kiddos! Today we will be learning all about the Steps of the Scientific Method so that we can test hypotheses and conduct experiments just like scientists do!

Below are the 5 steps we will be learning about today!



It is crucial that we learn these steps so you don't end up like this....

Use the following 2 websites to fill in notes on what each section of the Scientific Method is all about!

Next, using our Bowling for Dominoes Lab from yesterday, try and identify what we did for each step of the Scientific Method!

Look at the Popcorn Experiment #1 at the link below. Try and identify what these scientists did for each step of the Scientific Method to find out which popcorn kernels (yellow or white) produced a greater volume of popcorn after being popped. How could they have made their hypothesis better?



When finished and you feel ready, begin taking your scientific method exit ticket. Try to do this without your notes, but if you need them you may use them.

Now that you are finished, here are some fun Scientific Method Songs to Jam to! Make sure you have your headphones in!

And lastly, here's a fun pirate scientific method game you may play when you are finished!
