The Scienfice Method

The scientific method is when you test your opinion & see if your opinion or hypothesis is true or not. In the scientific method there are many steps. First there is the hypothesis. The hypothesis is an educated guess. Next is the experiment. In the experiment, you test your hypothesis to see if your hypothesis is incorrect or correct. After you test your hypothesis,there is the conclusion. In the conclusion, you tell the procedures you took to prove your hypothesis wrong or right.

An experiment of using the scientific method is "there is about 500 pages in this global text book". That is my hypothesis. Next you tell the procedures. The procedure to figure out of many pages are in the textbook is to look in the textbook. If there was more than 500 your wrong. If there's about 500 pages, you are right. The next thing you do is the conclusion. In the conclusion, I will have to write how I got my answer & if my hypothesis was correct or incorrect. This is an example of using the scientific method.
