Capstone — the Scientific Method
📋 What it is
The whole loop: observe → hypothesise → test (controlled) → conclude → repeat.
🗣️ Coach says
Everything in this kit links into one loop. You notice something, make a testable guess, test it fairly, and let the result update what you believe — then go round again. That’s how humans figure out the world.
🧠 Memory hook
Observe → Guess → Test → Conclude → repeat. The loop never really ends.
😂 Giggle
Why was the systematic guesser so calm?
Because they trusted the clues to lead them home, step by step!
😲 Whoa!
The scientific method is only about 400 years old — a blink in human history — and it’s behind almost every modern thing you use today.
✅ Quick check: After a test rejects your hypothesis, what’s the next step in the loop — quit, or go again?
Say your answer out loud first — then reveal.
Go again — form a new hypothesis from what you learned and test that; the loop is designed to repeat.
Science advances by looping: each rejected guess sharpens the next one.
🧪 Try it! (2 minutes)
Run a mini full-loop: observe something odd today, make an "if… then…", test it, and write your conclusion in one sentence.
