Using Google as a search engine.

In Room 9 we are focussing on reading and writing information reports. At a later stage we will gather information to write our own information report.
Today we learnt about how we can use different resources to find the facts we need. We looked at how to use library books, school journals, our school readers and encyclopedias. We are now going to learn about how useful the internet can be to help us find the important facts we need.

We watched a little video about the search engine we know as Google. It was very interesting and amazing how Google works really hard to find information for us.



Room 9: Your Mission.

Using the search example used in the video, (cheetah running speed)write the URL that appears in the first part of writing. Also...if you can ...write the name for the little part of information in the middle. It starts with "S"
