Investigate: 

• Find your information- Find something to read (check out the library resources or use a research plan.) 

• Read your information with your pencil down- Read all of the information top to bottom, left to right, whole sentences and paragraphs.  Do not skim!

• Check for understanding- If you don't understand what you read then re-read, ask for help, or find a different source.

• Write down the things you want to remember- 

  • Look for answers to you RTQs. The answers won't be in order!

  • Look for other important information that you didn't think about

  • Do not copy whole sentences or thoughts.  Instead write short 2 or 3 word phrases
