Lesson Overview:
Overview
Your conclusions will summarize whether or not your science fair project results support or contradict your original hypothesis. If you are doing an Engineering or Computer Science programming project, then you should state whether or not you met your design criteria. You may want to include key facts from your background research to help explain your results. Do your results suggest a relationship between the independent and dependent variable?
If Your Results Show that Your Hypothesis is False
If the results of your science experiment did not support your hypothesis, don't change or manipulate your results to fit your original hypothesis, simply explain why things did not go as expected. Professional scientists commonly find that results do not support their hypothesis, and they use those unexpected results as the first step in constructing a new hypothesis. If you think you need additional experimentation, describe what you think should happen next.
Scientific research is an ongoing process, and by discovering that your hypothesis is not true, you have already made huge advances in your learning that will lead you to ask more questions that lead to new experiments. Science fair judges do not care about whether you prove or disprove your hypothesis; they care how much you learned.
Evidence of Learning: Students will write their conclusion and reporting results.

Lesson Overview: Today the students will be learning about the three different types of variables in a scientific experiment. Students will learn that the independent variable is change in the experiment. The dependent variable is how the experiment responds to the change ( independent variable) and the controlled is what is remaining the same. Student will analyze three labs and identify the independent variable, the dependent variable and the controlled variable. Student will then create the variables in their experiments. Students will word process variables for their report.
Evidence of Learning: Students will take their knowledge of variables and write up their independent variable, their dependent variable, and controlled variable for their experiments.

2.) Students will write their hypothesis and then word process their hypothesis for their research report.
Lesson Overview: Students will learn they a hypothesis is:
- A hypothesis is an educated guess about how things work.
- Most of the time a hypothesis is written like this: "If _____[I do this] _____, then _____[this]_____ will happen." (Fill in the blanks with the appropriate information from your own experiment.)
- Your hypothesis should be something that you can actually test, what's called a testable hypothesis. In other words, you need to be able to measure both "what you do" and "what will happen."
Students will then write their hypothesis for their experiment
.Evidence of Learning: Students will write their hypothesis as an If then statement. Then they will word process it for their report.
