What is a science fair?What is a science fair?

J. Glenn Edwards will be hosting a science fair, and your child will be participating! Each child will create a project that exemplifies all steps of the scientific method. The projects should be creative, neat, well organized, and clearly label the steps of the scientific method on a tri-fold poster board. Each step should have an explanation of what took place during that specific step.

J. Glenn Edwards va a realizar una feria de la Ciencia y su hijo va a participar! Cada estudiante creará un proyecto que ejemplifica todos los pasos del método científico. Los proyectos deben ser creativos y deben estar bien presentados. Deben verse claramente los pasos del método científico en un poster para proyectos (de los que se doblan en tres partes). Cada paso debe tener una explicación de lo que el estudiante hizo y observó allí.

ProblemProblem

• State the Problem or ask a question.

• What you think will happen.

• The scientific method starts when you ask a question about something that you observe: How, What, When, Who, Which, Why, or Where?

• Escribe cuál es el problema o pregunta que quieres resolver.

• Qué crees que pasará?

• El método científico empieza cuándo te haces una pregunta acerca de algo que observaste: Cómo, Qué, Cuándo, Quién, Cuál, porqué, dónde?

HypothesisHypothesis

• Make a Hypothesis (prediction) of

what you think will happen.

• A hypothesis is an educated guess about how things work:

• "If _____[I do this] _____, then _____[this]_____ will happen."

• Haz una hipótesis de lo que crees que pasará (es una predicción de lo que crees que pasará)

¿Qué crees que pasará? • Hacer una hipótesis

es tratar de adivinar cómo funcionan las cosas, usando los conocimientos que tenemos:

• “Si _____[Yo hago esto] _____, entonces _____[esto]_____ Pasará."

ExperimentExperiment

• Do the Experiment.

• To test a hypothesis, scientists do an experiment.

• Haz el experimento.

• Para evaluar si la hipótesis está correcta, los científicos hacen experimentos.

ObservationObservation

• Make Observations and record data.

• Observations are only what you see, hear, or measure.

• Haz observaciones y escribe todo lo que veas.

• Sólo las cosas que escuches, veas o midas se pueden considerar observaciones.

ConclusionConclusion

• State your Conclusion.

• A conclusion is a summary that explains your data.

• Escribe tu conclusión.

• Una conclusión es un resumen que explica los datos que recogiste.
