There is not a specific method. There are either 20 or 30 different ways you can do it.. I believe.

Make an observation, ask a question, form a hypothesis, make a prediction based on the hypothesis, test the prediction, make a new hypothesis based on the results.

Hope this helps... Have a great day :D
