Step 5: Analyze the Results
Step 2A: Ask a Question
I write a final claim based on the evidence anyway
Step 4: Perform the Experiment
Ignore the evidence (experimental data) and write what I think the correct answer is
Scientific Method
Data or observations only from an experiment or the environment
My opinions on what I think the answer is
Step 3: Make a Hypothesis
Scientific Evidence
Scientific Questions
Step 6: Write/Draw Conclusions
Step 1: Make observations about the natural world
Step 2B: Do Research
Step where we... looked at different slides under the microscope that ALL had different amount of cellulose in them to see how thick the outer membrane was for each.
Step where we... answered the question "How does the amount of cellulose effect the cell thickness" BEFORE performing the experiment
Step where we... watched a video of what cellulose is.
If I think my data from the experiment is wrong then...
Step where we... identified some Sci Q's based on our observations of the cells in the picture like "How does the amount of cellulose effect the cell thickness"
Step where we... examined our observations of what we saw during the lab and organized them by cell membrane thickness AND by amount of cellulose in each cell.
If I think my data from the experiment is wrong then I NEVER
Evidence for a conclusion (claim) comes from...
Factual questions that are answered without feeling or opinions
Stepwise process used to answer a question through experimentation
Step where we... looked at a picture of cells belonging to a plant, animal, and protist and compared them.
Step where we... answered the question "How does the amount of cellulose effect the cell thickness" AFTER performing the experiment
Evidence for a conclusion (claim) NEVER comes from...
These are observations, numbers, data, etc. gathered during a lab/experiment
