Sequencing Worksheets with Picture Cards for How to Writing

Item description

These sequencing worksheets and sequencing picture cards can be used on their own or as a follow-up activity to a story you have read. As sequencing is an important strategy for students in reading and writing there are 50 topics included in your download. The ability to tell or retell events in a specific order contributes to comprehension so you want to give your students plenty of practice with this skill. 

What is included for each topic?

Each topic comes with:

guiding sequencing picture cards (numbered and un-numbered)

 four-step cut and paste worksheet (simple lines and handwriting lines)

 five-step cut and paste worksheet (simple lines and handwriting lines)

How can I utilize the sequencing picture cards?

The sequencing picture cards can be used as a poster to guide students or you can cut apart the cards for students to sequence.

What are students required to do on the sequencing worksheets?

To complete the sequencing worksheets, students will cut and paste four or five pictures in the correct order.

After they complete that step, there are lines for them to demonstrate their how-to writing skills. There is a small word bank included on every page with vocabulary that may be useful in their writing.

At the end of your PDF, you will find a blank-lined writing paper. You can run these on the back of the cut and paste sequencing worksheets or provide them separately for students that may need more room for their writing.
