Okay, let's say you want to find out whether slugs travel faster on sandpaper or on grass (we all know the answer, but it's just an example). Here's what you do: 1. Observe Observe the slugs in their natural environment and see how different surfaces affect their movement. 2. Hypothesize Make an educated guess, or hypothesis, about whether you think the sandpaper will make the slugs go slower, faster, or stay the same. This guess should be affected by what you observed. 3. Test Test your hypothesis by putting a few slugs on grass (this will be the control group) and a few slugs on sandpaper (this will be the experimental group, because you are experimenting with them. Record the data for how fast the control group slugs and the experimental group slugs travel. 4. Analyze Analyze the data you have recorded to see how the sandpaper affected the slugs. 5. Conclusion Determine whether your hypothesis was correct or not.
