    This document provides a worksheet on identifying problems and formulating hypotheses for students. It begins by explaining what a hypothesis is - an educated guess based on observations that can be tested. The worksheet then provides 4 examples for students to practice stating the problem and generating hypotheses. It asks students to formulate problems and hypotheses for different scenarios. The goal is to help students understand and apply the scientific process of identifying problems and making testable predictions to solve them through formulating hypotheses.

    Identifying a Problem and Formulating a Hypothesis


    When you were a child, what was the thing that you looked for in a playground? Probably your
    answer is a set of movable bars or a see-saw. Have you ever wondered how a see-saw works? Many
    questions in our minds have now been answered by Science and Technology. Through Science and
    Technology, we have been able to produce all comforts and convenience in life and managed our
    environment to acquire our needs. We have improved our ways of communication, transportation,
    household facilities, recreation and upgraded our medical equipment.

    Scientists follow step-by-step procedures before arriving at a conclusion. In this worksheet, you
    will do what scientists do in identifying and solving problems. You will solve problems, think critically,
    make decisions, find answers and satisfy your curiosity.

    Solutions to problems start with the formulation of a hypothesis. A hypothesis is an educated


    guess based on one’s observation. It is a tentative explanation for a behavior, event or phenomenon that
    will occur. A hypothesis maybe rejected or accepted.

    Formulating a hypothesis is the same as predicting. It is made about future events on the basis of
    ordered data. From the hypothesis, solutions to the problem can be sought.
    A. Read the following situations and answer the questions given to test whether you fully understood the
    processes of identifying a problem and formulating hypothesis:

    1. Your house is located in a congested residential area in Manila. The place is so congested. You have a
    neighbor who owns a piggery. Knowing the characteristics of this business, and being one of the
    members of the community, what should you do? Will you complain against the owner? Why or why
    not?

    a. State the problem.


    b. Give ways on how to solve the problem without resulting to quarrel.
    Write your answer here:

    2. An experiment using the same materials, 4 coins of different sizes – 10-peso, 5-peso; 1-peso and
    a 25-centavo coin was to be conducted following the procedure below.

    Procedure
     Lay the coins one by one on a table. Number of Water Drops
     Get a medicine dropper
     Fill the medicine with water. 10- 5- 1- 25-
     Drop the water in each coin one at a time. No. of peso peso peso centavo
     Count the number of water drops needed to Trials
    fill the coins. Stop dropping when the
    water spills over the coin. 1
     Do the same procedure with the other coins.
     Record the data on the Table provided for. 2

    Average
    Answer the following questions.

    a. What is the problem in this activity?


    _________________________________________

    b. Formulate your hypothesis. (List down three possible hypothesis)

    3. Mario graduated valedictorian in one of the prestigious public high schools in Manila. Naturally
    when he got to college, he was expected to do well and graduate with honors. But Mario got
    hooked on network games and surfing the internet. Soon enough, his grades suffered and
    he did not do well as expected. What do you think caused his poor performance in school?

    a. Formulate atleast three your hypothesis.


    Write your Answer in the box below.

    B. Formulate a Problem/hypothesis based on the given hypothesis/Problem.

    1. Problem: _____________________________________________________________________

    Hypothesis: I think the vinegar will help the egg bounce because the egg will soak up the vinegar so
    when it drops it may bounce.

    2. Problem: ______________________________________________________________________

    Hypothesis: I think the face shot will be the most accurate.

    3: Problem: What will cool a soda faster a refrigerator or freezer?


    Hypothesis: ___________________________________________________________________

    4. Will changing the air pressure of a ball change the bounciness?

    Hypothesis: _____________________________________________________________________

    C. Formulate your own Problem and a Hypothesis

    1. Problem: __________________________________________________________________
    Hypothesis: ________________________________________________________________

    2. Problem: __________________________________________________________________
    Hypothesis: ________________________________________________________________

    3. Problem: __________________________________________________________________
    Hypothesis: ________________________________________________________________

    4. Problem: __________________________________________________________________
    Hypothesis: ________________________________________________________________
