Pre-K Reading & Writing · World 2: Story Corner · Level 11
First, Next, Last
Retell a story in order.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. 10 minutes or less.
For grown-ups
Your child retells a short story in order (first, next, last), adding details. We suggest reading it together.
What children learn in Level 11
- Stories happen in order: first, next, and last. Telling it again is called retelling.
- Kai's Kite. First, the kite flew up high. Next, it got stuck in a tree. Last, Grandpa got it down!
- Your turn! Bo ran out in the rain, jumped in a puddle, then had a bath. Tap the pictures in order.
- When you retell, add details: what it looked like, how it felt, what they said.
- Try it with a grown-up! Retell a story you know, like Goldilocks, using first, next, and last.
Georgia Early Learning and Development Standards (GELDS), 48–60 months:
