The main or key events in 'Animal Farm' set out in boxes. This resource is intended to be copied and cut up. Students take the slips of paper out of an envelope and then put them in order. For the teachers aid, the original order is the correct order of events. A very useful method to help students to reinforce the correct order of events in the novella.
