Search skills and keywords are the focus of this Grade 6 Computer Science worksheet on Networks and Internet. Students work with the terms keyword, query, and result, then apply those ideas to choosing more focused search terms, explaining how queries produce search results, and selecting search strategies for different information needs. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

What students practise

The tasks move from recognising key vocabulary to applying and explaining search choices. Students identify important search concepts, compare more and less focused keyword choices, connect a query with the results a search engine returns, and justify which search strategy best fits a particular information need. This makes the resource useful for introducing internet search skills, reinforcing a lesson, or checking whether students can apply keyword strategies independently.

Students also meet the topic through reading, visual interpretation, short written responses, and extended reasoning, so the lesson checks both vocabulary knowledge and the ability to make purposeful search choices.

Activity mix

• Multiple-choice questions for core concepts and vocabulary
• True or false statements for quick understanding checks
• Short-answer questions that require concise explanations
• A dialogue task that places search decisions in context
• A matching activity for connecting related ideas
• A cloze passage for vocabulary and concept recall
• A labeled diagram focused on search-related features
• A reading passage that supports comprehension of search skills
• An essay task for extended explanation and justification

What is included

You receive the student worksheet plus a separate Teacher Guide PDF. The teacher guide includes learning objectives, teaching tips, discussion questions, and common mistakes, giving you support for planning, teaching, and reviewing the lesson without adding unsupported extras.

Classroom use

Use the worksheet after teaching basic search engine vocabulary, as guided practice during a Networks and Internet lesson, for independent computer science practice, or as a review before moving into broader online research skills. The range of task types gives students repeated contact with the same core ideas while asking them to recognise, explain, apply, and justify rather than only recall definitions.

For teachers building internet search instruction, this resource keeps the focus on practical keyword choice: how the wording of a query affects the usefulness of results and how students can select a search approach that matches the information they need.
