Picture Story Sequencing

speakinglisteningcommunicationmainpairsmedium prep15-20 minTBLT

Students receive jumbled pictures of a story and negotiate the correct order.

Procedure

  1. Give each group a set of jumbled pictures telling a story (6-8 images).
  2. Students discuss and agree on the correct sequence.
  3. Once ordered, students narrate the story orally.
  4. Compare sequences between groups.
  5. Optional: listen to the original story to check.

Tips

  • Choose pictures with ambiguous sequences — where two orderings could work — to generate genuine discussion and justification.
