SCIENTIFIC JAM Jeffrey Hale ©1999
You ask a good question,
wonder what the answer is.
If you guess at the answer, that's a hypothesis.
The scientific method can make you very smart.
If you want to solve a problem,
that's a good place to start.
chorus :
Is your hypothesis wrong or right?
Do a test that will shed some light.
If your experiment goes as planned.
You've answered your question
with the scientific jam.
You've collected all the data.
Now you’re searching for a clue.
You just might want to graph it
so you'll have a picture too.
With careful observations
you've really thought it through.
The answer finally hits you.
Now you’re ready to conclude.
repeat chorus
bridge
Make a guess, hypothesize,
Do a test and experiment.
Think it through, analyze, then
conclude with a great surprise
Now just in case
you made a major breakthrough,
do the test again
just to make sure it's cool.
Some other science dudes
may want to do your gig
A repeatable experiment is
something they can dig.
