Before you think for your possible topics/problems in your SIP, kindly access first the link below and read as a group for you to
know the background ideas on how to create a testable problem and understand what is the meaning of the different variables in a
Science experiment.

Afterwards, proceed to the next link and access then watch it as a group to gather information on how to create a good scientific
hypothesis in a Science Investigatory Project.
