Reading Comprehension Strategies Sequencing By: Anne Aronica, Jori Young, and Rebekah Beach
What is Sequencing? • Sequencing is organizing details or events in a certain order. It can include historical or biographical events, steps in a process, and directions. • Some cue words that might start off sequencing are first, second, next, then, before, last and after.
Introducing Sequence • To introduce the concept of sequencing, have students tell about an activity they have done. Let the students discuss the order in which the events happened using cue words. • Another way is to place other events on the board and ask students to put them in order. • For younger students, start with three or four events. For more advanced readers, use six or seven.
