Creating search terms for YOUR inquiry question.

Here is a video Mrs. LaPointe made to show how she brainstormed her search terms.  If you have less than five terms listed under your question I suggest you watch this video.  Feel free to pause, rewind or fast forward at any point.

If you're still having a hard time understanding good search terms, here is a link to a game you can play on BrainPOP for some practice.  I'd recommend skipping the video at the beginning.
