Sequencing events

The sixth graders practiced putting events in order. First, one student created a story using a beginning-middle-end graphic organizer. Then, they cut their story apart, mixed it up, and gave it to a partner. Their partner had to put it back together again in the right order and rewrite the story using the sequence words “first, second, next, then, finally.”  I put them in the display box on the stairwell to the third floor.  Don't they look great?
