Scientific Method: Think.Pair.Share.
Imagine that you want to test to see if the use of fertilizer actually
affects plant height. To see this, you’re going to set up an
experiment to see the effects of fertilizer on plant height. Using
what you know about the scientific method, answer the questions
below.
1. What are two possible hypotheses for this experiment?
2. List 4 possible variables that could affect the outcome of your experiment.
3. In this experiment, what would be the independent variable?
4. What would be the dependent variable?
5. What types of things would you need to keep constant during your experiment?
6. In your experiment, how would you set up a control?

More Scientific Method Practice: Salt and Boiling Water
You want to see if the amount of salt in water affects the temperature at
which water boils. To see this, you set up an experiment to see if salt really
does raise the boiling point of water.
1. What are two possible hypotheses for this experiment?
2. List 4 possible variables that could affect the outcome of your
experiment.
3. In this experiment, what would be the independent variable?
4. What would be the dependent variable?
5. What types of things would you need to keep constant during your experiment?
6. In your experiment, how would you set up a control?
