Scientific Method 5 Step Cycle

About this illustration

A vibrant, circular diagram illustrates the five core steps of the scientific method, each numbered and featuring a distinct cartoon child engaged in an activity representing that stage. The steps include: '1. QUESTION (What do I want to find out?)', '2. HYPOTHESIS (I think that if ___, then ___. My best guess or idea.)', '3. EXPERIMENT (I test my hypothesis and collect data.)', '4. RESULTS (I record and analyse what I found.)', and '5. CONCLUSION (I decide if my hypothesis was correct and what I learned.)'. This educational diagram is suitable for teaching scientific inquiry to primary students, ideal for slides, worksheets, or as a classroom poster, presented in a flat, brightly colored illustration style with no specific cultural cues.
