Scientific Method Hypothesis

I. Hypothesis 1) Possible explanation for __________OR for a __________ that can be _________ 2) A ___________ about the outcome of a scientific investigation -based upon a person’s __________ & previous knowledge or experience

1. Must be ___________ 2. May require you to make _____________ first 3. May need to do prior ________(background information) 4. Must include a __________(not a guess) of the raw data 5. Must include an ____________ (scientific reason) of why you expect that data 6. Must relate the _______ & _______ variables using consistent terminology II. Criteria for Hypothesis

1. IF IV then DV because scientific explanation May require several ________ depending upon amount of info. necessary to complete explanation (the because) May require several ________ depending upon amount of info. necessary to complete explanation (the because) III. What does it sound like?
