Description

Introduce a lesson on Online Research Skills with this eBook that goes over How to Read a Web Page. In this booklet students learn about the main parts of a web page and how to skim over the distractions to read them. Share the PDF with students for a paperless experience or print the nonfiction text out as a booklet.

In the file you’ll find:

1.  Instructions for printing – if you want physical copies of the eBooks
2.  Comprehension questions (2 to a page and full-page options)
3.  Vocabulary for this eBook
4.  Higher order thinking questions to ask after reading
5.  3 graphic organizers that can be used with the text (provided in PDF for printing and as PNG files that can be loaded into Seesaw or Google Slides for students to type their answers)
6. 2 Levels of the PDF eBook. Level 1 is meant to be simpler to understand for younger students and level 2 includes more details and higher level vocabulary for upper elementary or middle school students.

The PDF is designed to be used like an eBook, so you can project it onto your whiteboard and/or share it as a PDF in your learning management system for students to read through independently. The level 1 version should probably be read aloud to younger students due to the technical terminology.

VOCABULARY:

• Web Address (URL)
• Menu
• Search Box
• Main Content
• Advertisements
• Social Buttons

This booklet content is similar to the Web Pages booklet from the Computer Basics set, but the focus for this one is on how to use the web page for research.

WAYS TO USE THIS BOOKLET

•  Whole-group introduction to this topic or a related lesson.
•  Wrap-up activity when you have a few extra minutes.
•  Full lesson with the book, vocabulary cards, graphic organizers, and questions.
•  Back up plan for days that the internet doesn’t cooperate.
•  Sub plans.

PLEASE NOTE that if you subscribe to my k5tech.net curriculum, the eBook is included already as an embedded Flipbook in the lesson page. The graphic organizers, vocab, and comprehension questions are not included, so if you want them and the booklet in PDF format then this is how to get them.
