  3. 5. This is the stage where we get to test our hypothesis. It can be a test or a series of tests done in a controlled environment to validate our observations and answer our questions.
  4. 6. It is important to look up what is already known. Research opens us up to answered and unanswered questions about our topic. It also prepares us for the next step in this process.
  5. 8. We draw conclusions from our analysis. Our conclusion summarizes the information we gathered during the scientific process and shares if our hypothesis is correct or can be supported.
