Focus Skill: Sequencing • Think about a recipe for something you know how to make. • What would happen if you changed the sequence of the directions? • The sequence of events also affects the outcomes of a story. • Paying attention to the sequence of events will help them better understand a story.
Focus Skill: Sequencing • Sequence is the order in which events happen. • An author may use signal words such as first, next, then, and finally to show sequence. • Understanding the sequence of events can help readers better understand how one story event affects another.
Focus Skill: Sequencing EXAMPLE: All through the summer, Ant prepared for winter. First, he would look for a morsel of food. Then, he would carry it down into the nest. During those months, Grasshopper did not store any food. He just hopped around, singing happily. Fall came, and then winter. One day, Ant dragged some more food out of his nest. Grasshopper asked to share it. “You sang all summer while I gathered,” said Ant. “Now you can dance all winter while I eat.”
