Sequencing

Sequencing Sequence is the order in which events occur. In order to show sequencing, writers use words such as: First, Next, After, Before, Then, Later Transition words help to connect ideas and indicate the order in which events occur. Words, phrases, or dates that tell when something is happening also helps readers figure out the sequence of events. Sometimes events may jump around.

Sequencing Example: The girl didn’t realize that before she arrived at class the teacher had assigned homework. What happened first? The teacher assigned homework.

Sequencing Some events may happen at the same time. Example: Just as I touched the doorknob, the door flew open. What two events happened simultaneously? Touching the doorknob and the door opening.

Tips For Finding Sequence 1. Look for clue words such as first, next, then, last, finally, before, or after. 2. Pay attention to clues about time-time of day, the day of the week, month, season, year. 3. Look closely at the steps or events and find a logical and meaningful order. 4. Always look back at the passage. 5. As or While = two events at the same time Before or after = two events at different times
