What is an experiment?

• observing and collecting data

• Scientists design and carry out tests and trials to determine if their hypothesis is correct

• a good question to be answered

• analyzing the results

What is a conclusion?

• Final step or process explaining if the hypothesis was correct

• should be "testable" and aims for answers to verify or explain a theory

• facts about something that can used for planning and reasoning

What is done in the results (analyzing data) step of the scientific method?

• using the data collected during the experiment that can used for planning and reasoning

• gathering information on a topic using our five senses. Examples see, hear, taste, touch, and smell

• gather information to help make a hypothesis

• Final step or process explaining if the hypothesis was correct

What is the correct order of the scientific method?

• Draw a conclusion, form a hypothesis, analyze results (data), ask a question, research, experiment plan, draw a conclusion

• Analyze results (data), draw a conclusion, form a hypothesis, ask a question, experiment plan, research

• Ask a question, research, form a hypothesis, experiment plan, analyze results (data), draw a conclusion

• Experiment plan, draw a conclusion, ask a question, form a hypothesis, analyze results (data), research
