III. Learning Experiences
Stimulating Activity
The teacher will show some pictures. Then, the teacher will ask some ideas from
the students about what they think about the pictures posted. Afterwards, the teacher
will let two students tell to the class about the things they usually do before going to
school.
Actual Activity
After the activity, the teacher will ask the students the following questions:
 How important is it to arrange the tasks correctly?
 What will happen if the events are not arranged properly?
 Aside from the events in our life, is it also important to know on how to arrange
the events in a story properly?
 Why or why not?

Discussion:

Sequencing events in a story is the sequence of events from first to last. It helps
the readers to retell the most important parts of the story in order.

Time order words tell us the order in which events happen. They allow us to
understand the sequence of events in chronological order, from first to last. These are
words such as first, next, then, finally, and so on.

After the discussion, the teacher will let the students describe the events
presented in the pictures using the time order words.
Follow up Activity

The teacher will present a passage, and she will let the students read it. Afterwards, the
teacher will post some strips of paper on the board containing some events of the story. Then,
the teacher will randomly call students one by one to arrange the events.
Matt is a dog. He likes to dig holes. One day, Matt was digging a hole in his
back yard. Soon, he found a bone that he hid in the ground the day before. Matt was
