Keep in mind that this differs significantly from the traditional sequencing events activity. Implement the Macro Cloze strategy. Select an unfamiliar story with a traditional beginning, middle, and ending. Leave plenty of space for your child to write what they think happened in each spot. If your child wishes, you may share the actual paragraphs that you had deleted from the story.
Children often like to compare their paragraphs to the original paragraphs that the author wrote.
This strategy involves children in meaningful silent reading, strengthens story grammars, and provides children with an opportunity to write in relation to reading.
