Research skills help you find information about a topic. You can start by asking questions like, 'What do I want to know?' Then, look for answers in books, websites, or by asking experts. For example, if you want to learn about dolphins, you might read a book about ocean animals or search for videos online. This way, you gather facts and become more knowledgeable about your topic!
