The scientific method is a series of steps a scientist takes to investigate a problem. By doing a Science Fair project, you will become a scientist yourself, so during your project you should follow the following steps:
- Stating the Problem --- decide on a topic and formulate a question
- Gathering Information --- do library research to educate yourself
- Forming a Hypothesis --- what outcomes do you expect and why?
- Testing the Hypothesis --- perform an experiment
- Stating a Conclusion --- compare the results with the hypothesis
- Reporting the Results --- present a list of materials, procedure, data, and conclusion at the Fair
