Pupils needing extra support: Give specific words related to the topic including some that throw up websites that are not useful, for example putting in ‘penguin’ brings up websites for the publisher as well as about the bird. Alternatively, use the provided Activity: Internet searches (see Classroom resources) which includes words that will bring up a range of sites.
Pupils working at greater depth: You could ask children to develop creative ways to explain how a search engine works e.g. a written document or a poster.
