In this module, students will learn how to retell key events of a story in chronological order. This module could be implemented in the middle of the fall semester following instruction on identifying characters, setting, and events in a story.
This module targets and explicitly teaches standards CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RL.K.2: With prompting and support retell familiar stories, including key details and CCSS.ELA-Literacy.W.K.3:use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to narrate a single event or several loosely linked events, tell about the events in the order in which they occurred, and provide a reaction to what happened.
It is suggested that only pencils be provided so as to not distract students “in coloring” but rather to record the details.
