PPractice Today you will make observations, take notes and answer questions as the teacher leads you through an investigation.

PPractice 1.Problem: The question we want to investigate. 2.Hypothesis: A statement about the expected outcome based on observation, knowledge, and experience. One possible answer to the problem or question. Written as an “if…..then” statement. 3.Materials: The equipment or tools needed to test the hypothesis and answer the problem or question. 4.Procedure: The steps you will follow to do your investigation. The method you will use to gather and record your data. 5.Data: Gather data. Observe and measure carefully. Record and organize your data so that you can learn from it. Display data in tables, charts, or graphs. Use clear labels. 6.Results: Record the results of the investigation using pictures and words. 7.Conclusions: Write a conclusion. Describe the claims and evidence you used to determine whether your test supported your hypothesis. 8.Applications: How could the information be applied in another situation.
