What is Sequencing?
Sequencing means being able to arrange information, language, and actions in the correct order.
Sequencing refers to the identification of the components of a story or event— the beginning, middle, and end — and also to the ability to retell the events in a text in the order in which they occurred.
Why teach Sequencing?
The ability to sequence events is an important skill for both reading and writing. Teaching readers to understand the importance of order of events helps them deepen their comprehension. The ability to correctly identify beginning, middle, and end allows readers to retell a narrative in a manageable way.
Some of my students need support in simply describing the action on a single picture, others are able to sequence and retell multi-step picture stories. These cute and colorful winter theme stories are easy to adapt to meet the needs of a wide range of learners.
My students love these sequencing mats! The cards are color coded to help sort cards belonging to the same set. A sorting mat is also included so that kids can place their cards on it as they sequence the cards.
Children are asked to cut out the pictures from the bottom of the page and paste them on top of the numbered boxes to show the correct sequence.
With these sequencing activities, your students master this skill before you know it!
