About this resource
Description
Sequencing is the skill of putting events or steps in the order they happen. When young readers can tell what comes first, next and last, they understand directions, follow a story and retell it in their own words. The raking the leaves sequencing worksheet gives first graders a friendly, everyday job to practice that skill: cleaning up a yard full of fall leaves.
About the Worksheet
In this raking the leaves sequencing worksheet, students read five short steps about raking leaves. The steps are printed out of order, so children must read each one, think about what has to happen before it, and write the numbers 1 to 5 in the boxes. In Part B, students fill in the bubble that tells what all of the steps are about, a simple summarizing check. It works well as a 1st grade sequencing worksheet for whole-class practice, small groups or independent work.
What’s Included
- One page with five out-of-order steps to number from 1 to 5
- A summarizing question with three fill-in-the-bubble choices
- A cheerful fall illustration of a rake, a leaf pile and a leaf bag
- A complete answer key on page 2
Why It Helps Kids Learn
First, the steps describe a real chore children have seen or done, so they can picture each action and check whether the order makes sense. Second, every step builds on the one before it, which teaches students to look for clues in the words instead of guessing. Third, the summarizing question asks children to name the big idea in their own mind, an early step toward retelling and finding the main idea.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before students begin, talk about a time they helped clean up outside. After they finish, have them read the steps aloud in order using the words first, next, then and last. You can also cut the five steps apart and let children arrange the strips on their desks, or ask them to write the steps for another chore they do at home. The page makes a quick literacy center task, a fall homework page or a short check before a comprehension lesson, and the answer key lets you check work in seconds.
