THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD {LIQUID VISCOSITY EXPERIMENT - FLIPBOOK AND EDITABLE POWERPOINT}

This flipbook and (editable) PowerPoint presentation will provide your students with key information about the scientific method through a practical hands-on experience. Students will conduct an experiment to test the viscosity of liquids and document each stage of the scientific method process.
Students will:
✓make an observation and write an aim/question
✓make a hypothesis
✓list and illustrate the equipment needed.
✓record the variables to be measured, changed and kept the same to make the test fair
✓list the steps to be followed to conduct the experiment.
✓ record results and note observations .
✓ provide a conclusion that links back to the hypothesis.

What’s Included:
1. Flipbook templates in blackline to print (2 cover options)
2. Flipbook templates in colour to print (2 cover options)
3. Interactive Notebook template x 2 (to record vocabulary)
4. Vocabulary Word Cards and Meanings
5. Sample Experiment Answer Sheets
6. Editable PowerPoint presentation for general instruction (39 slides)
7. Team Roles badges (Manager, Speaker, Director) x 2 options
8. Grading Rubric

How to assemble: You can choose either of the three options.
A. Print out the templates in blackline. Cut around each template and assemble from smallest template to largest template. Have students colour in background. Staple/glue at top tab.

B. Print out the templates on cardstock (different colours). Cut around each template and assemble. Staple/glue at top tab.

C. Print out the coloured templates. Cut around each template and assemble. Staple/glue at top tab.

** Have students assemble flipbook first, then document the scientific process involved in conducting the experiment.

** The PowerPoint also features step-by-step instructions to conduct the experiment to test liquid viscosity in addition to information on team skills, team roles and scientific terms used.
