STEPS OF THE SCIENTIFIC
METHOD
1.Identify or
define the
problem
19. 19
HYPOTHESIS
It is a tentative
answer to a problem.
You can write a
simple hypothesis in
if… then format.
20. 20
ACTIVITY 3: TAKE A GUESS!
DIRECTION: On the next activity
you are task to make your own
hypothesis based from the given
situations below. The rubric to be
used to evaluate your answers in
this activity is also included here.
21. 21
ACTIVITY 3: TAKE A GUESS!
Example:
SITUATION: Eva observed that the
indoor plant in her room grows slower
than the plant in her garden at the
backyard. She became curios about the
effect of sunlight on plant growth.
HYPOTHESIS: If the amount of light
shined on a plant each day increases,
then the daily plant growth increases.
22. 22
ACTIVITY 3: TAKE A GUESS!
SITUATION: 1. Black ants are very
common in the kitchen where food,
ingredients and condiments are
kept. Ela noticed though that the
black pepper container is always free
of black ants.
HYPOTHESIS:__________________

ACTIVITY 3: TAKE A GUESS!
SITUATION: 2.Molly’s mother asked her
to buy salt. While on a store, she saw
iodized salt which has smaller particles
size than rock salt. She remembered their
lesson about solubility of substance and
she wanted to investigate which dissolves
faster in the same amount and
temperature of water, iodized salt or rock
salt?
HYPOTHESIS:______________________
24. 24
ACTIVITY 3: TAKE A GUESS!
SITUATION: 3. Mabel read from a book that
coconut water is one of the best drinks to hydrate
the body. It can also remove toxins in the body.
While watching an intense basketball game, Mabel
noticed that the players often drank energy drinks
during the game. She remembered the information
she read about coconut water. Coconut water is
relatively cheaper than the energy drinks that the
athletes drink. She became curious about this.
HYPOTHESIS:______________________________

ACTIVITY 3: TAKE A GUESS!
SITUATION: 4.Mina and her friends
went on a coffee shop. She noticed that
the coffee shop also serves cold coffee.
Mina becomes curious to find out if the
temperature affects how fast coffee
dissolves in water?
HYPOTHESIS:_____________________

27. 27
EXPERIMENT
After the hypothesis is formulated,
some tests to nullify or verify it are
necessary. An experiment is done
under controlled conditions in order
to test the hypothesis. The reliability
and validity of the experiment
depend on a certain factors or
variables that can influence its result.

according to the song?

type of variables.

•Broadest, most inclusive taxon
•Three domains
•Archaea and Eubacteria are
unicellular prokaryotes (no
nucleus or membrane-bound
organelles)
•Eukarya are more complex and
have a nucleus and membrane-
bound organelles

THREE CATEGORIES OF
VARIABLES
Dependent variable is the
one that you measure and the
change that happens because
of the independent variable.
It is also known as
responding variable.
Remember the word DRY:
Dependent, Responding and
Y-axis.
36. 36
FAIR TEST
A fair test should always
be employed when
conducting experiments. It
is done by changing only
one factor at a time while
keeping all other conditions
the same.
37. 37
DATA
Data are the facts,
figures, and other
evidences gathered
through observations
during experimentation.
38. 38
GRAPH
A graph is a picture or
diagram of data. Graphs
are useful tools for
presenting information in
limited space.
