Ordering activities

1. Print and cut out words. Give one sentence to each small group and ask them to rearrange
them into order.

Extension: Students order the words into sentences, then paste them onto a worksheet next to
the appropriate picture. When they’ve done the first one, they show the teacher, and are given
the next one.
