  3. Part 1: Order of the scientific method • On the following slide, you will see the steps to the scientific method. • Next to each step will be a letter. • Put the letters in order that follows the scientific method.

  4. Record and analyze data. Gather information. Repeat the experiment. Form a hypothesis. State your conclusion. State the problem. Perform the experiment.

  5. Do your letters look like this??? • F, B, D, G, A, E, C • If so…YAY FOR YOU!!

  6. Part II: Experiment vocabulary • Which word on the right is the variable in the experiment that you change (what you are testing)? • Variable • Constants • Independent Variable • Dependent Variable • Control Group Answer: Independent variable

  7. Which word is a separate experiment that has no changes? • Variable • Constants • Independent Variable • Dependent Variable • Control Group Answer: Control Group

  8. Which word means the parts of the experiment? These can change each time. • Variables • Constants • Independent Variable • Dependent Variable • Control Group Answer: Variables

  9. Which word mean the variable in an experiment that responds to the change? This is the result. • Variables • Constants • Independent Variable • Dependent Variable • Control Group Answer: Dependent Variable

  10. Which word are the parts of an experiment that stay the same? There can be MANY of these. • Variables • Constants • Independent Variable • Dependent Variable • Control Group Answer: Constants

  11. Random question time!! • How many variables can you change in an experiment at once? • ONLY ONE • Which 2 words need to be in your hypothesis? • “If…then”

  12. Back to the scientific method(The fun never ends!!!) • On the following slides you will see the steps of the Scientific Method in order. • Match up which step goes with what happens during that step. Write the letter on your board.

  13. Test your hypothesis. Answer: D State the problem. Gather information Form a hypothesis. Perform an experiment. Record and analyze data. State your conclusion. Repeat the experiment.

  20. So how did you do?? • If you were able to get most of those right, then you are on the right track for Monday’s quiz. • There will also be a section for you to identify Independent and Dependent variables, as well as constants. • Study, study, study this weekend!!
