Science Fair Proposal

INTRODUCTION
Should include one or two paragraphs describing why you selected this topic/experiment

QUESTION
Be specific.  Your experiment should be able to answer this question.  Use the format suggested in the Step 1, number 3.  (Maybe you could link to that section - or not I don't know what is best.)

HYPOTHESIS
What do you think will be the answer to your question.  What do you think will be the results of your experiment.
The hypothesis has two parts:
  1. The condition (If)
  2. The prediction (Then)
VARIABLES
  • Manipulated Variable (also called the Independent variable) - The one thing in your experiment that you are changing
  • Controlled variables (also called the constants) - All the things that you are going to keep the same
  • Responding variable (also called the dependent variable) - What you are measuring
MATERIALS
A list of all things needed to complete the experiment.  Use a bulleted list.

PROCEDURES
Numbered steps to be followed to complete the experiment.  Should be specific enough so that someone else could repeat exactly what you do.
