Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

Trying to determine how to help me student turn an idea into a project that uses the scientific method:
Children often resemble their parents because of specific features being dominant or recessive.
He wants to have pictures of different babies and a set of parents (of only one of the children); He
wants people to guess which child belongs to them.
I love the idea. I just don't know how to MAKE it a workable/testable project that is objective.

Hello!

That sounds like such a neat project! Before people select which baby they think belongs to the parent, you could have them make a hypothesis on who the parent will be. The procedure would be setting up the pictures and having them be selected. The scientific method includes: hypothesis, materials, procedure, data/results, and conclusion. The objective of the project would be to see if the hypothesis correctly determined the parent.

I hope this helps! Let us know if you have anymore questions!
