46 Sequence Storytelling
Elizabeth Baroody-Solomon
Strategy Overview:
- Interactive way for students to use oral language
- Oral language is the base for understanding oral and written language (NYSED Literacy Brief #1)
- Easy to use during station work or as a full class
- Engages many senses as students view pictures, brainstorm ideas out-loud and collaborate on a story together
Strategy in Action
Provide students with picture cards that clearly illustrate a “sequential” event, such as the life cycle of an insect or a child moving through their daily routine. Students work together to place them in chronological order and explain their thinking out-loud.
