Science Experiment

General Information
 Step 1 .- Come up with a good Question!

Now that you have picked out a topic that you like and that you
are interested in, It’s time to write a question or identify a
problem within a topic. To give you an idea of what I mean. Look
at the following examples:

Step 2: Doing the research and forming a hypothesis

Step 3: Testing your hypothesis by doing an experiment
Designing an experiment is really cool because you get to use your
imagination to come up with a test for your problem, and most of all, you
get to prove (or disprove) your hypothesis. Following these science steps or
rules:

First, Gather up your materials. It means the materials you required for your
experiment.

Second, Write a Procedure. It means the steps of your experiment performance.

Third, identify your variables: The factors that can change in an experiment.

Fourth, Test: (the procedures) How many tries you do in order to get the final
result.

Fifth: Collect your DATA: This means writing the result of the experiment.

experiment to the end, it is what you are testing):
