Sorting and Sifting Information
Organize and select information that contributes to your understanding.

Look back at your Living Condition Planning Sheet. What were you looking for in a place to live?

Keep this information in mind, and look at your Notes Sheet with the facts you have gathered. Have a pencil and a highlighter ready.

  • Read all of your notes.
  • Highlight the information that matches what you are looking for in a place to live.
  • Circle the information that is does not match what you are looking for in a place to live.
  • Cross out information that is not helpful in making your decision.
    (use a single line to cross out information – like this)

Do you have enough information recorded about each region and the 3 living conditions?

If you need to gather more information, do it now.

Check PointWhen your Notes Sheet is complete, show it to your teacher.
