1st Grade Sequencing

1st Grade Sequencing

This past week I had the opportunity to visit our 1st grade classrooms and teach a lesson. First, I introduced sequencing by talking about what we do in the mornings (getting out of bed, getting dressed, eating breakfast..etc) and that the order matters. Next, we read the book There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Bell to the first graders. After reading they helped me sequence the story by turning and talking to there neighbor. They had to tell me what the Old Lady Swallowed and why she swallowed it. 

 Before we started my lesson we set up google classroom so students could access two different read alouds online. The students linked to Who Will Guide my Sleigh Tonight? and listened to the story. When they listened to it by themselves once they were partnered with a group of three. Most of the groups relistened to the story as they used cards to sequence the story. 

We finished the lesson by linking to Sneezy the Snowman on goggle classroom so the students could listen aloud online. 2 of the classes completed the sequencing using a worksheet. 2 of the other classes used Google Slides and we worked on trying to use it for the first time. Since all the students are using the teacher login we worked on staying on their slide and moving only their pictures!
