Experimental Design Worksheet – The Scientific Method Made Easy!

Get your students ready to explore the scientific method with this interactive worksheet set. Perfect for guiding them through the steps of designing a science experiment, this printable activity gives students hands-on practice with the scientific method. Ideal for elementary science classes, it is also perfect for teaching students about the scientific method.

To complete the activity, students will cut out each step in the process, then sequence and glue them onto the recording sheets under the correct columns labelled ‘Before the Experiment’ and ‘After the Experiment’.

Download Your Differentiated Scientific Method Worksheets

This printable resource includes two variations of the cut-and-paste activity. The two versions are differentiated based on reading ability, with one being aligned for developing readers and the other appropriate for skilled readers.

This resource is available as a printable PDF resource file, as well as a full editable Google Slides download. To get your copy, click the dropdown arrow on the download button to select your preferred file.
