Steps of the Scientific Method

• Ask a Question-purpose of the experiment based on
  an observation you made.

5

• Form a Hypothesis-a possible explanation/predictio
  n to an answer based on your observation that can
  be tested.

6

• Test the hypothesis-design an experiment that
  will show whether a particular outcome caused an
  observed outcome.
• Use Control and variables.

7

• Analyze the Results organize data and try to
  understand it from experiment.

8

• Draw Conclusions-decide whether the results of
  the experiments support the hypothesis. If
  hypothesis is rejected, must redo the experiment
  and try out new things.
