We can put sentences in an order to write about something that happened or tell a short story.
It is important to sequence the sentences in the right order; one idea needs to follow another in a logical order so it makes sense.
These meals are sequenced in the correct order:
Breakfast Lunch Dinner
These days of the week are sequenced in the wrong order and do not make sense:
Tuesday Sunday Friday Wednesday Monday Saturday Thursday
These days are sequenced in the right order:
Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday
We can sequence short simple sentences.
It started to snow. The children built a snowman.
The sequence is in the correct order as it needs to snow before a snowman can be built.
In this activity, you can practise putting words and sentences into the correct sequence so that they make sense.
