Scientific method
-The scientific method is a number of steps that we take to solve any problem.
-To understand these steps, let’s first read this story .
Scientific method story
-One day, Little Andy was in a family gathering .- They all sat together to have dinner.
- Then Andy told her mother “ Mummy, I want to make lemon Juice for every one.- Mum told her “ ok, dear but do you know how to make it?”- “ Yes mum “ she said.
- Andy ran to the kitchen and she was thinking “ A lemon juice needs lemon , water and sugar”
- She looked everywhere and she saw that she can’t find the sugar.“ Where’s the sugar?” she said.
-” I can’t find the sugar “ she said to her self.- “ What should I do? “- She asked her self a question:” What can I put in my lemon juice that will make it sweet?”.
- Well , she started to search for informations: what can be sweet like the sugar?.- I have honey , jam and I also have chocolate.
- Then she started to make a guess “ I think the honey will be good for the lemon juice “
- She Chooses the honey and decided to make a small experiment to try it.
- she puts the water , the lemons ,and the honey together.“It’s time to taste it” she said.“Oh , I hope it works”
-” Mmm, It tastes so good, My experiment worked” she said.
- Her family loved it too , she was so happy.
- she decided to write down what she found so she won’t forget it.“Now, She has come to conclusion “Whenever I want to make a lemon juice and I can’t find sugar ,,, I’m going to use honey” she said.
- Now let’s try to answer some questions together to find out the scientific method steps.
-What was the problem that Andy saw when she entered the kitchen to make a
lemon juice?
- She saw that she can’t find the sugar.
OBSERVE (SEE) A PROBLEM
- So the first step in the scientific method is to:
-When Andy couldn’t find the sugar,, what Question did she asked her self?
-She asked her self: what can I put in my sugar to make it sweet?
ASK A QUESTION
- So the second step in the scientific method is to:
What other things she ( gathered) searched for to put in the lemon juice ?
-She gathered the honey , the jam and the chocolate.
GATHER INFORMATIONS
- So the third step in the scientific method is:
Was Andy sure that the honey is the right choice?
- No she wasn’t ,, she just made a guess.
MAKE A GUESS “HYPOTHESIS”
- So the fourth step in the scientific method is:
What did Andy decide to do to be sure that honey is the right choice?
-She decided to do a small experiment to make sure the honey will taste good
with her lemon juice.
MAKE AN EXPERIMENT
- So the fifth step in the scientific method is :
After Andy’s experiment worked, What did she decided to do so she won’t forget what she found?
- She decided to write down (record) what she found .
RECORD YOUR RESULTS
- So the sixth step in the scientific method is :
-At the end of the story, what conclusion did she made?
-She made a conclusion that she can use honey to make lemon juice when she
can’t find sugar .
DRAW (MAKE) A CONCLUSION
- So the last step in the scientific method is:
-So the seven steps of the scientific method is :
1) Observe “see” a problem.
2) Ask a question.
3) Gather “collect” informations.
4) Make a guess “Hypothesis”.
5) Make an experiment.
6) Record your results.
7) Draw your conclusion.
See a problem
Ask a question
Gather informations
Make a hypothesis
Do an experiment
Record results
Draw conclusion
