Literacy Connection ~ Sequencing

Pocket Chart printables can be used in a pocket chart or just simply laid on the floor or table.
Print pages on cardstock, laminate and then cut apart into strips.
Use the book along with the strips to put the story back in order!

Story sequencing is an important skill in the early years and greatly helps with comprehension.
Use these to work on putting the story back in order and also to work on reading with
expression!
Mouse and Momma went out to play. They found a butterfly.

They found a snail. They found a bird.

They found a frog. They found a worm.

Mouse found a flower. Mouse found Momma.


Comprehension Connection
Use the following questions as you read, or after to improve comprehension. Make up your own questions too! Cut them out and make a
game out of it. Put the cards in a bag or basket and have your child choose one to answer! If s/he is confused, turn to find the answer in
the book, showing how to reread for better understanding!

What was the weather like They found something


What did they find by
when Momma and Mouse slithery and slimy, what
first went out to play? was it? the pond?

Why do you think the What is the one thing


Where do you think the
worm was going?

water? an animal?
