This activity sheet is designed to help you use an
index to find information in a book or magazine called "Grandly Geographic."
An index is like a map for words. It lists important topics in alphabetical order and tells you which page number to turn to if you want to read about them.
Here is the list of topics and their page numbers from the index:
*
cities: page 7
*
currency: page 8
*
employment: page 3
*
famous people: page 18
*
government: page 9
*
landscape: page 25
*
monument: page 20
*
monarchy: page 11
*
national emblem: page 12
*
population: page 3
*
waterways: page 26
The instruction at the top says: *"Use a dictionary to look up any words in this index that you do not understand."*
Since there is no specific question asked (like "What page is 'cities' on?"), the main task here is to understand how to read the index. If you were given a question like "Where can I find information about money?", you would look for the word
currency in the index and see that it is on
page 8.
If you don’t know what a word means (for example, "monarchy" or "emblem"), you should use a dictionary to find its definition before looking for it in the book.
Final Answer:
The index shows where to find each topic in the "Grandly Geographic" publication. For example, to read about "cities," go to page 7; for "currency," go to page 8; for "employment" or "population," go to page 3; for "famous people," go to page 18; for "government," go to page 9; for "landscape," go to page 25; for "monument," go to page 20; for "monarchy," go to page 11; for "national emblem," go to page 12; and for "waterways," go to page 26. Use a dictionary to define any unfamiliar words.
