The scientific Method: Title, Problem, Hypothesis, Experiment, observation, Data, and Results. Title: the name given to your experiment. Problem: written in a question form , which is a question you are trying to solve by conducting your experiment. Hypothesis: an educated guess written in the format of If……… Then…….. Because. Experiment: conduct your experiment. Observation: Write down what you observed in the experiment. Data- Your data can be written in words, table, graphs, numbers or images. Results- the final piece of the experiment known as a solution. Task: Your task is to try to conduct a scientific experiment using the scientific method. Your experiment should be conducted in the correct format. You will be given 45 minutes to conduct an accurate experiment.

4. Lesson 3
Aim: to have a clear understanding of the common science vocabulary words and terms.
Vocabulary:
Photosynthesis-the process by which plants and use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water.
H20 – Formula for Water
Biometrics -study of biological measurement.
Cell -the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms.
Matter - that which has mass and occupies space.
Task- chose 2 of these words and try to put it in your own words into how you would be able to learn the definition. Also chose 2 words and try to give 2 examples of each. You will have 20 minutes to perform the task.
