Dr. PHERC Method!

Problem The problem is when you ask a question. Questions must be testable and NOT opinion.

Hypothesis The hypothesis is your idea about the answer to the question. Include reasoning for your hypothesis.

Experiment The experiment is when you test your question with a procedure. (Collecting data) Variables: Independent: I Change Dependent: Measured Controlled: Remains the same

Results Results are your data and what you discover in your experiment. Create Graphs to display your findings.

We will use 3 types of graphs: Graphing We will use 3 types of graphs: Line (Used to show change in ONE ITEM) Circle (Pie) (Used to show percentages) Bar (Used to compare many things) Don’t forget TAILS And DRY MIX

Conclusion The conclusion is a summary of what you found and your next ideas to retest and improve your experiment.
