Sequence events in the school day in chronological order
Lesson details
Learning outcome
I can sequence things that happen in a school day in order of time.
Key learning points
- To sequence events is to put them in the order that they happen.
- We start with the event that happened first.
Keywords
Morning - The time between midnight and midday.
Afternoon - The time between midday and midnight.
Midday - The middle of the day. 12 o' clock in the afternoon.
Common misconception
There may be some confusion with pupils because Jun’s school day is likely to be sequenced differently to theirs.
Spend some time discussing with the class that daily timetables vary from school to school, and from person to person.
Teacher tip
Display a visual timetable in your classroom and refer to it daily to reinforce the ideas in Cycle 2 of the lesson. Get children to discuss the timetable using the ‘First… Then… Next… Finally’ structures. If you wish, you can substitute Jun's timetable in the lesson for your own class timetable.
