Year 7 Study Support
Worksheet 4.1
Finding Information in books You often have to find information from a text book. You may not know where to start looking. There are two places that can help. 1. The list of contents at the front of the book 2. The index at the back of the book. Some books have a glossary which gives definitions of key words. To help us practice collecting information, we are going to have a team race.
