About this resource
Description
Knowing what comes first, next and last helps young children retell stories, follow directions and see how things change over time. This order up sequencing activity gives preschool, kindergarten and 1st grade students hands-on practice putting three pictures in the right order.
The pack has twelve picture cards in four color-coded sets: making a pizza, an egg that hatches into a chick, eating a banana and a watermelon snack. Children pick one color set, look closely at each picture, and lay the three cards on the First, Next and Last spots of the Story Board. Then they tell what happens using the order words first, next and last. A kindergarten practice worksheet asks students to read two sentences and color the dot by the one that tells about the last picture in a set.
What’s Included
- A colorful cover and a How to Use page
- 12 picture cards in four color-coded story sets
- A First, Next and Last Story Board
- A kindergarten practice worksheet
- Answer keys for the card order and the practice page
Why This Picture Sequencing Game Helps Kids
First, putting real changes in order, like a pizza that goes from dough to baked, builds the logical thinking children need for math patterns and story retelling. Second, saying first, next and last out loud grows the order words students use in speaking and writing. Third, the color tabs let children check and sort the sets on their own, which builds confidence and independence.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use the order up sequencing activity at a math or literacy center, in a small group, or at the kitchen table. Hand out one set at a time for younger children, or mix two sets together and let students sort them first. This preschool sequencing activity also makes a quick warm-up before reading a story aloud.
