Order is important for many things we do.  For example: When we make breakfast it would be very messy if we poured the cereal and milk before we got a bowl.  This week we have been challenging the children to think about the order of things .

To do this we have been using sequencing cards.  Some are illustrations and some are photographs.  We started with trying to sequence three cards.  Next week we will work with four cards.

We encourage the children to tell us the ‘story’ once they have finished.  If they have the card in a different order they can self correct.

We are also using language such as first, second and third and beginning, middle and end.
