Here I will tell you five steps to make your searching on the internet easier and quicker.
1. Use a minus sign (-) to exclude a meaning of a word. For example mullet it has two meanings one for hair and the other is a fish. If you are searching for the mullet fish you type 'mullet-hair'.
2. You can use quotes if the word you are searching has 2 real words in it. If there are quotes around it then when you search you can find out about the word you are looking for.
3. When you search put in a specific website.
4. You can use OR when you search. If you put OR in between words you type then it will tell you about one of them. Rather than telling you both of them.
5. Punctuations stand for things.
Excellent. I was planning to teach the grade 5s some of these techniques.
