More About This Resource
These story sequence writing prompts make the perfect NO PREP, differentiated, writing center activity. This engaging, printable and digital writing activity gives students practice with sequence of events and retelling stories in writing. Students use sequence writing picture cards to order events, then retell their story in writing using transition words and specific story vocabulary.
Each printable includes a “Good Writers” editing checklist reminder at the bottom of the paper. The resource includes 25 different sequence writing activities so students will have plenty to choose from!
Use the story retell and sequence writing prompts as a whole class writing activity, in writing centers, in small groups, as a writing homework assignment, or as a meaningful writing activity to do with a substitute teacher.

See what other teachers are saying about these Story Retell and Sequence Writing Prompts – Fall and Pumpkin Writing Prompts :
“This was a great resource for teaching sequence writing. We did many examples in whole class settings, and then I was able to use additional sequences during literacy centers to keep using those learned skills.”
“This is an awesome year-long bundle. Students need a lot of repetition with retells and sequencing. This helps with both.”
“This is such a great resource to help teach and practice sequence writing. I like how they include images and vocabulary words to help students with their writing pieces. 5 stars!”

Love these for using as a sequencing activity with language students throughout each season.

This resource is great because it expands once the student can sequence the pictures in the correct order. It helps with story retell and syntax as well.

Absolutely loved this resource! A great visual for my students to follow while they organize their writing. I will be incorporating this into my writing lessons all year next year.

I am using the story sequencing with all of my students! I like that I can use pictures with some of my students and then have other students write a paragraph. I am finding it is not only helping my students with sequencing but we are also starting to add adjectives and adverbs to expand on their writing!
