Scientific Skills

Observing, measuring, recording results and doing a fair test — with an interactive exercise.

Good scientists observe, measure, record their findings and do a fair test.

A fair test means changing only one thing and keeping everything else the same, so the test is fair. We record what we find in a table so we can compare.

Remember

  • A fair test changes only one thing at a time.
  • Record your results so you can compare them.
