Research Skills - skimming and scanning
In reading, we are learning how to research. This week we have learned the difference between facts and opinions, how to write open ended questions and how to skim and scan for keywords. Miss T photocopied some information about lions from a non-fiction book and we had to skim and scan with our buddy and highlight the key words. Key words help to keep us focused on finding information to answer our questions. Next week, we will be answering our questions and presenting our information. Stop by our blogs next week for an update!
