Experimental Science Projects	Grade Level:
Not all fields of science arrive at conclusions in the same way. Learn about the physical sciences, which use experimental forms of the "scientific method." Descriptive sciences, like zoology may use a form of this method that gathers information by visual observation or by interviews. Common within all sciences is the making of hypothesis to explain observations, the gathering of the data and how data is gathered and processed. Learn the steps required in doing an experimental science project using scientific methods.
