The document provides guidance for a project requiring students to use the scientific method to test a hypothesis about how to make their community of Stoughton a better place. Students must state a hypothesis with an "If...Then...Because..." structure, include detailed experimental procedures that could be replicated, present any data collected in graphs or charts, and write a conclusion paragraph discussing whether the hypothesis was validated along with lessons learned. The project aims to teach students how to scientifically evaluate ways to improve their town and encourage continued community involvement.
