About this resource

Description

Sequencing is one of the first comprehension skills a young reader builds, and this brushing your teeth sequencing worksheet turns a routine every child already knows into clear, teachable practice. When students put the steps of a familiar task in order, they learn that events follow a logical chain, that first, next, then and last are words with real work to do, and that the order itself carries meaning. Brushing teeth is the perfect place to start, because first graders live it twice a day. They can lean on what they already know while they learn to hunt for order clues in pictures and in print.

This first grade health and nutrition worksheet gives students two ways to practice the same skill on one page. Part A shows four pictures of the brushing routine, printed out of order, and students write 1, 2, 3 and 4 in the box inside each card. Part B moves the same thinking into text, with four short sentences about a girl named Mary that are also printed out of order for students to number. Read the directions together, talk through one picture as a class, then let students finish on their own. The included answer key makes checking the page take seconds.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • Answer key
  • 4 picture-sequencing cards and 4 sentence-sequencing items

Three things make this brushing your teeth sequencing worksheet a strong choice for a reading block or a health lesson. First, it teaches sequencing with content students can already picture, so their attention goes to the order rather than to an unfamiliar topic. Second, it pairs a picture task with a sentence task, moving students from concrete images to printed text without leaving the page. Third, it doubles as a health lesson, because by the time students finish they have walked through the steps of good tooth care four separate times.

Teachers and parents can stretch the skill well past the page. Act the routine out at the sink and narrate each step aloud using first, next, then and last. Cut the four pictures apart and have students rebuild the order on a desk before they write anything down. Ask what would happen if two steps were swapped, since brushing before the toothpaste goes on is a funny and memorable mistake. For an extra challenge, have students draw a fifth step and explain where it belongs and why.
