The Scientific Method

All Steps

600

**DOUBLE JEOPARDY***

What is STEP 2?? and TRUE OR FALSE is the PURPOSE of your experiment. 

Step 2 is Ask Questions/ Define a problem and TRUE

700

What is the fourth step of the scientific method?

Create your hypothesis. 

800

What is step 5  of the scienctific method? What two things are needed? 

Step 5 is create your experiement. The two things you need are to 1.) list Materials 2.) Write a Procedure 

900

** DOUBLE JEOPARDY***

What is the first step of the scientific method? How do we complete this step?

Observe. We observe with our five senses.

1000

How do we complete step 3 of the scientific method? 

Do we... 

A.) List questions, search for answers, and Analyze the findings?

B.) Provide an educated guess using If... Then... Because

C.) Record the materials we are going to need and the procedure which will have the steps to follow for how to test of hypothesis.

A.) List questions, search for answers, and analyze the findings.

How many total steps are in the scientific method? Please list all the steps in order. 

Seven 

1.) Observe 

2.) Define a problem/Ask questions 

3.) Research 

4.) Hypothesis 

5.) Create your experiment 

6.) Collect Data 

7.) Share/Publish your results (C.E.R)

Step 7 - C.E.R

600

What does C.E.R stand for?

C- Claim 

E- Evidence 

R - Reasoning 

700

What part of C.E.R matches the below definition? 

Definition: A statement that answers a question. 

C- Caim 

800

***DOUBLE JEOPARDY***

Define Evidence. 

The scientific data and details to support your claim. 

900

**DOUBLE JEOPARDY**

Below is a scrambled up C.E.R response. Which part (A, B, or C) would be evidence? EXPLAIN HOW YOU KNOW!

Part B: To start, we see the dog burying the cat pet tags from the missing cat poster. 

Part C: The dog killed the cat. 

Part A: I know people burying things to hide evidence of crimes commited at times. 

Part B is evidence. It is the scientific data (straight up and concrete) to support the claim. 

1000

Below is a scrambled up C.E.R response. Which part (A, B, or C) would be reasoning? EXPLAIN HOW YOU KNOW.

Part A: To start, we see the dog swimming, running, and pulling weights on a mat.

Part B: The dog is trying to loose weight. 

Part C: Exercising, like swimming or running, is an important part of staying a healthy weight.

Part B is reasoning. It is explaining the evidence. It explains "how" or "why" the evidence supports the claim. 

1100

Put the scrambled C.E.R parts below in order. EXPLAIN HOW YOU KNOW ITS IN THE CORRECT ORDER. 

Part A: To start, in the video the dog is seen trying to get outside through the doggie door, but he can not get through. 

Part B: The dog is trying to lose weight.  

Part C: I know that dogs should be able to fit thorugh doggie doors and this dog can't

The correct order is Part B, A, C. 

The dog is trying to lose weight. To start, the dog is seen trying to get outside though the doff door, but he can not get through. I know that dogs should be able to fit through doggie doors and this dog can't.

Define Terms/ One Random

Who.... is...... this.....?!?!?!

RUBY! 

700

Define Procedure 

The steps you take to test your hypothesis. 

800

Define Experiment. 

A test or investigation used to answer a question or solve a problem

900

**DOUBLE JEOPARDY**

Define Data 

information, facts, and details we collect during an experiment to help us understand what happened. 

1000

Define Reasoning. 

Explains "how" or "why" the evidence supports your claim. 

1100

Define HYPOTHESIS? What MUST it have??? 

What you *PREDICT* is the answer/solution to your experiments purpose. An educated guess!

Must have the words IF... THEN... BECUASE... 

Hypothesis/Data

600

What is the difference between QUALITATIVE and QUANTITATIVE DATA. 

Qualitative is with words and tells what something is like. Quantitative is with numbers and tells how much of something. 

700

Write a hypothesis to answer the question:

 Q: How will staying up late on a school night effect Little Tommy at school the next day? 

If little Tommy stays up late on a school night 

Then he will not do well in school the next day 

BECAUSE you need to get enough sleep to be productive. 

800

**DOUBLE JEOPARDY**

Was the data we collected on Leaves QUALITATIVE or QUANTIATIVE? How do you know?

The data we collected was QUALITATIVE because this data tells us what something is like and is data involving words. 

900

Provide TWO pieces of Quantitative data for the below picture. 

Mrs. Sesmerwill be judge, but below is an example. 

Any response with NUMBERS

1.) There are three children 

2.) There are three different instruments 

(there are two boys and one girl) 

1000

QUALITATIVE DATA IS....... ??? 

List what each letter stands for. 

A, B, C, D, E 

A- accurate 

B- BIG 

C- coloful 

D- Detailed 

E- Explained

*** DOUBLE JEOPARDY****

You have 5 minutes for the below task

As a team, write a hypothesis for the below experiment. 

Q: What drinking source ( Water, Gatorade, Soda) makes a plant grow fastest? 

If you give a plant (water/ Gatorade/ Soda) as a drinking source, then it will grow faster because
