Happy Tuesday everyone! Today I wanted to share with you a brand-new activity for sequencing. For early readers, putting things in the right order of events can be difficult. I created eight sets of sequencing cards to use as a center in the classroom! My goal in creating these cards was to pick everyday life events in order so that students would be able to successfully put the cards in order. I based them off of some sequencing cards a reading specialist let me borrow. I don't know where she got them, but I have never been able to find any quite like them. I loved them because of that everyday life feature. For example, I have a set about doing laundry and washing hands. I find that if they can make the real life connections to what they are doing in the classroom, the students are more confident about their abilities to understand a skill. Once they have mastered the skill, it is then easier for them to transition to putting it in use when we read stories or even later in the year as they begin to write their own stories! Here is a sample below:
