3. OBJECTIVES 4 Objectives Statement form Answering following questions:
What do you intend to achieve with this project?
What dependent-variable questions will you answer?
In what ways do you intend to apply this project to real life situations?

4. HYPOTHESIS Gather background research.
A hypothesis is a testable statement based on background knowledge, research and scientific reason.
A hypothesis states the anticipated caused and effect that may be observed during experiment.

5. MATERIALS
“Materials” section must include a list of all materials used to prepare the experiment.
List materials in scientific units as accurately as possible in bulleted manner.

6. PROCEDURE
A well designed experiment contains procedures that take into account all of the factors that could impact the results of the experiment. These factors are called variables.
List in a systematic and orderly way that will be easy for judges to understand.
If any terminology is used, please clarify.

7. VARIABLES
The independent variable is the one variable the investigator chooses to change.
Controlled variables are variables that are kept the same each time.
The dependent variable is the variable that changes as a result of/or in response to the independent variable.

9. OBSERVATIONS
Record what happens during different stages of your experiments.
You can measure using rulers, stop-watches, syringes, measuring cups, etc.
Organize your observations into tables, charts, or graphs.
You have to record observations accurately in your logbook.

10. CONCLUSIONS
Conclusions are written to answer the original testable question proposed at the beginning of the investigation.
Conclusions should explain how the students used science process to develop an accurate answer.
You should have two or three conclusion in response to your initial objectives.

11. HOW CAN THIS PROJECT’S RESULT BE APPLIED TO REAL-LIFE SITUATIONS?
APPLICATIONS
Answer this question:
HOW CAN THIS PROJECT’S RESULT BE APPLIED TO REAL-LIFE SITUATIONS?
There must be at least 2 applications to your project.

12. EXPERIMENT
