Reading Challenge

 Today Mrs Anderson's reading group has been doing reading challenges to practice our Skimming and Scanning. We learnt what Skimming and Scanning Means Skimming is like a low flying plane - It goes over the information once and quite quickly. Scanning is like an helicopter, it finds what you are looking for and then hovers over until the information has been found.
