1. Scientific Method
Put the following steps in order for a logical method for solving problems:
Law
Observations
Theory
Hypothesis
Experiments

2. Observations – uses all senses, not just sight.
Hypothesis – explanation based on observations; can be supported or refuted by experimentation.
Theory – explanation that has been verified many times by many scientists; generally accepted to be true; parts may be revised.
Law – statement of fact meant to explain an action; accepted as true and universal.

3. So what’s the difference between a theory and a law??
Both are considered true
Both are used to predict events
BUT…
Theories are complex – they explain a set of events.
Theory of evolution, theory of relativity
Laws govern a single action – often with an equation. Accepted at face value.
Law of gravity, law of conservation of mass
