Scientists go in great into great detail when going through the scientific method to come up with a theory. Elementary students just need the basics as to how the scientific method works. They don't need a thousand steps that I think sometimes teachers make their students learn. It is simple really, observe, hypothesise, experiment, observe your results, and then come up with a conclusion. Sure scientist may have to revise their hypothesis and test again or add a variable to the experiment to see if they get different results, but I think for the elementary student, this video show enough steps to getting them started.
