    Skimming VS. Scanning: Grade 7

    Uploaded by

    Russel Baring Baya Lpt
    Skimming involves quickly reading a text to get the general idea or main points, such as when browsing books in a store. Scanning is reading specifically to find a single piece of information, like looking up a term in a science textbook. The key differences are that skimming focuses on general understanding while scanning searches only for specific facts without reading everything.
