Sequencing is a very important skill for children to develop at an early age. It will help further develop organization skills that they will find important in their future. Can you guess what lesson we worked with this morning during circle time? That’s correct, Sequencing. Here’s an easy activity you can do with your child to help him/her with this skill. Read a story, ask your child to tell you what happened 1st in the story, then what happened next, etc. Then ask them to draw the pictures that match the order of the story.
