Research skills are evolving!




Often the Internet is such a big and enormously complicated monster that it is too difficult to find just exactly the information we need.  Luckily everyone in Year 4 has now learned how to set the 'Advanced Search' settings when using Google to search. Remember at home to change the reading level to basic so that the results are more easily read. Even the basic level can be difficult to understand for Year 5 and 6 shildren, so don't feel that basic should be easy. 

I'm pleased to say that after improving their search skills the children managed to find some good volcano sites that they could read and understand. 




Well done to Jamie for not only using Google well to search, but for also presenting her book so beautifully too!
