This lesson gives students the chance to demonstrate and reinforce their knowledge of sequencing. Have them role play a fantasy text to practice sequencing!
Students will be able to identify the correct sequence of events in a story.
The adjustment to the whole group lesson is a modification to differentiate for children who are English learners.

Introduction
(15 minutes)
Give students sentence strips from The Little Red Hen.
Instruct the students to pay attention to the story sequence as you read the story.
Separate students into groups and have them put the story sentence strips in order after you complete reading the story. Ask a group to share their sequence and correct any misconceptions.
Tell students that they just sequenced a story, or put it in the correct order.
Beginning:
Pair ELs in high-low groups to read the sentence strips together.
Preteach key terms in the sentence strips ad provide both home language (L1) and new language (L2) meanings with visuals.
Intermediate: Provide key sequence words in the sentence strips to allow them to find the order with the signal words.
