Year 5 become Google Search Wizards
20th March 2020
In computing this week, Year 5 have continued their training as Google Search Wizards! Having learnt how internet search facilities gather information, the children then tried searches with and without their new 'magic' tricks. Using " " around search terms instructs Google to search only for that exact phrase which can hugely reduce the results and provide more specific information. The students also used search terms such as volcanoes site:nationalgeographic.com to request that only results from www.nationalgeographic.com, a trusted source, came up and used related:nationalgeographic.com to find reliable, related sites.
