Reading Table Mat

 We used skimming and scanning to help us finish our reading.

First we used skimming and scanning to read a book about New Zealand film-makers. Skimming is like a airplane. Looking down on keywords as you feel you already have good prior knowledge. Scanning is like a helicopter. Having the abillty to stop and focus on information more oftern.

Next, we defined 2 keywords and when we were nearly finished we switched chrome books with someone from our reading group.

Finally we wrote questions that the author might think about and questions we thought about.

I enjoyed this activity because we used skimming and scanning again.
