This resource contains 7 different, short story, sequencing jigsaws. Students simply read the short story then use the information that they have read to figure out which order to place the image into the jigsaw. All the jigsaws comes in b/w option and col option for your preference. The stories are; ★ Today we are going to the water park. Mom says for us to put our stuff next to the palm tree so we can find it easier. First, I run to the giant octopus who shoots water out. Then, I go down the giant slide. Finally, before we go home, I have a shower. ★ We are having a water fight today, so I’ve filled a bucket with water bombs. First, I pick up a green water bomb, then throw it at my friend, it hits him and explodes on his chest. He throws an orange water bomb back at me, so I try to run away from it! ★ Today, we are going to the beach. When we arrive, I sit on the sand, playing with my baby brother, but then he starts to eat it! I can see my brother looking in the rock pools for different animals, I go over to see him, and he shows me a crab that he’s found! ★ We are going to the surf shop today! There are so many nice surf boards, but finally I choose an orange one. Once we are finished, the sun is still shining, so mom takes me down to the beach and I get to surf on my new board in the sea for a little while. ★ Today is my first day at Monster School, when we get into class, the teacher gives us all a pencil each, then tells us to sit at our desks and write our names on a piece of paper. Once we have finished writing, we get to ready some books. For snack time, I choose a red apple. ★ My new teacher walks into class, he wears square glasses and has yellow hair. He tells us that today, we have a lot of work to do. First, we are going to read a story, then we are going to do some writing. Finally, before home time, we get to do some typing on the computers. ★ Our teacher stands at the front of the class with a giant chalkboard. We lay on the floor, watching her draw pictures for the alphabet. Next, the teacher reads us a story, afterwards, we work in pairs to re-write the parts of the story we liked best.
