focuses on writing about events in sequential
order. The lesson activities may take
between 1 and 2 days to complete. There
are whole group, partner, team, and
independent activities in each lesson to
help the students break down each part
of the standard. Combined with the
other lessons in the unit and the
culminating writing pieces, this unit will
take between 2 to 3 weeks.

 Kindergarten W.K.3
Writing
Lesson I can write narrative pieces.

Use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to

narrate a single event or several loosely linked events, tell
about the events in the order in which they occurred, and
provide a reaction to what happened.

Focus:
Sequencing Events

LESSON 3 Materials:

Step 1- Teacher will show sequence strips on the board one

at a time. Students will Mix-Pair-Share around the room
until they find a new partner and create a verbal story
about the story they can create from the sequence
picture strip. Remind them to use temporal words between
each event.

Step 2- Students will work with a partner to put together a

sequence of three cards. They will then tell a verbal story
to their partners about what is happening in the story.
They will repeat this for the three sets of cards they
receive.

Step 3- Students will practice writing about events in

order. Teacher can use the empty boxes to let students
be creative and tell their own story or teachers can use
the graphic organizer that has a pre-made story in it.
