Look at the information below about hamsters.

How can we use the structure of the text to help us retrieve information?

If you look at the text above you can see that the information has been grouped into two columns.
  • Which column would we look at to find out what hamsters eat?
  • Which column would we find information about hamster's homes?

hamsters skimming and scanning.wav

I used my skimming and scanning skills, looking for key words to help find the answers.

When I write my answers,  they are written in full sentences that make sense. I have also included part of the question in my answer.

Eg: Why do you think that hamsters store food in their burrows?

I think that hamsters store food in their burrows to save for later so they can survive.
