Hypothesis

Hypothesis Have you ever made a guess about how something works? Have you ever tried to predict what the score in a football match will be? Or who you think will win X-Factor? If you have answered yes, then you have made a hypothesis.

Hypothesis A hypothesis is a guess or a prediction about what you think might happen or what you believe to be true. It is something which you can then be proved or disproved by observation or collecting data.

Hypothesis Hypothesis: I believe it will rain today. Observation or collection of data: How could you prove or disprove this hypothesis?

Hypothesis Hypothesis: I believe there are more boys than girls in this school. Observation or collection of data: How could you prove or disprove this hypothesis?

Hypothesis Hypothesis: I believe that at least 60% of students in this classroom use MSN to chat to their friends. Observation or collection of data: How could you prove or disprove this hypothesis?
