The Scientific Method

There are 5 important parts to an experiment! BIG IDEA: There are 5 important parts to an experiment!

Important Part #1 The Important Part Is… In Our Shark Lab This Was… 1) The Independent Variable (IV) = the thing I change on purpose

Important Part #2 The Important Part Is… In Our Shark Lab This Was… 2) The Dependent Variable (DV) = the thing that depends on the IV

Important Part #3 The Important Part Is… In Our Shark Lab This Was… 3) Experimental groups = each set-up where you change the IV

Important Part #4 The Important Part Is… In Our Shark Lab This Was… 4)Control group = the set- up where you do NOT change the IV; the group you will compare everything else to

Important Part #5 The Important Part Is… In Our Shark Lab This Was… 5) Constants = things that stay the same in all your groups to make it a fair test

Simplified! Independent Dependent Cause Effect Before After Output Input What you do What happens
