Presentation transcript:

Do zombies float? How can the number of zombies be changed within a city? Can moisture form on the surface of a zombie? Can sound be used to attract a zombie? Do zombies eat animals other than humans? Write one hypothesis for each of these observations:

Select one of your hypotheses and write a procedure for how to run the experiment. Underline the Independent and Dependent variables in your procedure.

Are all necessary materials listed? Have you included a description AND size for all experimental and control groups? Does it include a numbered list? Have you described how to change AND measure the independent variable? Have you explained how to measure the dependent variable? Have you identified the control group and many of the constants within the experiment? Have you identified how many times you intend to repeat the experiment?
