Step by Step Pictures to create the Sequencing skills board

Important Tips

1. Teachers can create a sequencing template to display on the board using the headings: First, Then, Next, and Finally. By demonstrating everyday tasks, such as spreading jam on bread or peeling a banana, teachers can help students develop essential sequencing skills. This method allows students to break down and learn activities step-by-step.
2. ​This activity caters to both auditory and visual learners. To assess comprehension and improve attention spans, the teacher can remove the pictures and ask students to recall what happens next. The model can also be adapted into a purely auditory exercise to further challenge their listening skills.

Using the Learning Teaching Material

Teachers can use this activity to teach children new skills that are useful in daily life. It will improve logical order, improve storytelling and foster the development of better social skills.
