Table Mat

For reading we did table mat using the strategy skimming and scaninng. Our book was Killer quakes.

Skimming is when you are going through the text and looking and for keywords. Scanning is when you stop and focus on the information on the text.

First I skimmed through the text and looked for key words. My keywords was earths crust, and landslide. Then I scanned through the text and looked for information in chronological order.

Lastly I recored my keywords and facts onto my table mat.

I liked this activity because I did more skimming and scanning.
