Materials needed during an experiment 2. variables 3. steps/directions A series of steps used by scientists to solve a problem through experimentation What we measure in an experiment (the effect) Write a hypothesis (1st claim) Ask a question AND research information surrounding that question 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 An explanation done before an experiment that is testable through an experiment. What we make different in an experiment (the cause) Come up with a procedure (experiment) to test your hypothesis Written in cause/effect (If...then...) Make observations about the natural world
