What we make different in an experiment (the cause) Written in cause/effect (If...then...) What we keep the same in an experiment 1. What materials to use & how to use them 2. What is being recorded and how we are recording it Ask a question AND research information surrounding that question Write a hypothesis (1st claim) Make observations about the natural world What we measure in an experiment (the effect) A series of steps used by scientists to solve a problem through experimentation
