Connectors of sequence and time expressions

We use connectors of sequence to help make the order of events clear. Time expressions describe when things happen.

Look at the connectors of sequence and time expressions below:

Beginning the story: in the beginning / at first

Continuing the story: before / after / next / later / when / then / as soon as

New elements to the story: suddenly / all of a sudden

Events occurring at the same time: while / as / during

Ending: eventually / at last / in the end / finally

Activity Use the connectors of sequence to complete the story. There may be more than one suitable answer.

A HUNGRY BEAR

Two years ago, we went camping in the mountains. One afternoon, 1. while  we were preparing dinner over a campfire, we
saw a bear watching us from about a hundred metres away. We ignored it, hoping it would go away, but it began to walk towards us! 2.

As soon as  we realised that we were in danger, we tried to remember what the park ranger had told us. 3. First

 , we shouted and waved our arms in the air so the bear would think we were large animals. 4. Then  , we began to back

away slowly. Fortunately, the bear didn't follow us - he was too interested in our dinner! 5. When  we returned, we found

there was no food left for us. 6 In the end  , it was worth missing a meal for the experience of being so near a bear!
