Keywords

 

Keywords are an important part of research. Without them we would NEVER get the results we are looking for.

 

Choosing Keywords Steps

1. Choose a keyword from the question.

2. Keywords will likely be the subject of the question.

3. Choose 3-4 words.

4. Put the words in order of importance. Example "toxic food dog" instead of "toxic dog food"

 

 

3rd-5th Grade

Activity: 1.) Keyword Research Experiment. The experiment will answer the questions how important are keywords and does the order of keywords make a difference?

 

2.) Doggy Data Search. Plan before you BEGIN research. Students may only search once for the answers.

 

 

Parents: my lesson will be very similar to the one you see here, here and here. This resource is for you to talk with your students at home what they learned in class.
