Organizing Writing : Concept - Sequencing of Events

Definition : 

Sequencing is a process that is used to explain an event in the order in which happened.

Every event follows a sequence for instance:

First
This part is the starting of the event.
Examples: Ram woke up.
Next
This the main body of the event.
Examples: Ram brushed his teeth and took his bath. He got ready for school.
Last
This is the last part of the event.
Examples: Ram went to school.

Examples :

Boy
  1. This is a basket of vegetables.
  2. The chef is cutting the vegetables.
  3. The chef is cooking the vegetables.

How to Write a Sequence of Events?

  • Observe the pictures carefully.
  • Try to understand what the pictures are trying to tell.
  • See which event comes first, middle, and last.
  • Construct the sentences keeping in mind what you see in the picture.

Common Mistake

Don’t get confused with the numbering of the events. Look at the events carefully and recognize which one comes first, middle, and last.

Examples :

Boy
  1. The chef is cooking the vegetables.
  2. The chef is cutting the vegetables.
  3. This is a basket of vegetables.
