Topic: Story Sequencing

Introduction

This week, we will learn to put the events of a story in the correct order. This is called sequencing. It helps us to understand and retell stories.

Tasks

After reading a familiar story like 'The Three Little Pigs', use picture cards to put the main events in order. Try drawing your own pictures for a story and putting them in order.

📖 Story Sequencing

We use words like 'first', 'next', 'then', and 'finally' to help us order a story.

  • First, the wolf came to the straw house.
  • Next, he blew it down.
  • Then, he went to the stick house.
  • Finally, he couldn't blow down the brick house.
