Hi! Detective ThinkMore...
I don't know about you, but I have been waiting for this day.
WOW! I am so excited. This is the reeeally fun
part of the
investigation!
Do you know why? Because...
For every disciplined effort there is a multiple reward.
-- Jim Rohn
Remember to conduct your experiment being sure to follow safety rules.
CLUE No. 4, Part D
Phase 4 of the Scientific Method
This phase will take up to one month to complete.
Line "H" on timeline.
THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD
This is the heart of your investigation.
It is the action part. Read this before you take action.
- Every day keep very careful records of what you do, see, and
hear in your
Science Projects Log. Date each entry.
- Establish the
variables important to
your experiment.
Variables are
the things that have an effect on the experiment.
- The experimental
variable is the one condition that you change in the
experiment. It is the factor that you are comparing or testing.
Ask yourself: What are the things that may affect the
results of my experiment? Choose one variable to change and
keep the others the same.
- The controlled
variables are the conditions that need to remain the
same during the experiment so that they do not affect the
results.
Example "A"
Controlled
variables: You
have the same kind and number of kittens that are the same age
and weight. They are fed the same measured amount and brand of
food. Weigh each cat and put it on a chart.
· Experimental
variable: One group is fed the food from the can while
the other group's food is microwaved before it is given to the
cats. At the end of 2 weeks measure the weight of each cat.
IMPORTANT DO NOT DO THIS EXPERIMENT. This experiment was done in England by a
professional
lab and all the kittens died who ate the micro-waved food.
***************
Example "B"
· Controlled variables: Take a package of sunflower
seeds. Use two containers that are the same size with the same
kind of potting soil. Have them exposed to the same amount of
light and air. Plant half the package of seeds in one pot.
Space them equal distance as you did with the seeds in the other
container. Water with equal amounts of water.
· Experimental
Variable: Feed one set of seeds with fertilizer. Do not
feed the seeds in the second container. Which seeds germinate
the fastest?

All these details will contribute to an outstanding
easy science fair projects report and
middle, high or elementary science fair projects exhibit for your project.
If you have time repeat the
science fair
experiment a couple of times.
Well, we will not see each other for some time. While you are
doing your science fair experiment, I'm going on vacation. Remember to bookmark
this page in your favorites so we can meet up again after you
complete your science fair project ideas experiment. Signing off
for now, your sidekick, Dectective ThinkMore.

Hi! Welcome back. Congratulations! You have completed the research and experiment phase of your science
fair experiment.
Record the
data obtained from the
science fair experiment.
Organize the results of your experiment on easy-to-read
tables
and / or
graphs
to express the results of your data. These can be drawn on graph paper or on
your computer.
Remember to record and
keep everything in your Science Log.

Clue 4, Part F
Science Fair Experiment
DRAW CONCLUSIONS
Phase 6 of the Scientific Method
This phase will take up to 3 hours to complete.
Line "G" on your timeline
In your
Science Log , using your notes, charts and graphs, analyze what happened in the science fair experiment.
Did your hypothesis hold up? Do your results agree with your hypothesis?
What happened? State what the investigation showed. Accept or reject your
hypothesis. You may also include other explanations, such as conditions that you were not
able to control that may have affected the results.
It's OK if your hypothesis does not agree with the results.
This is part of the scientific process.
Write your conclusion in your science fair experiment log.
