Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Sequence the major events of The Three Little Pigs from beginning to end.

  • Retell how each pig's house (straw, sticks, bricks) withstands or fails against the wolf.

  • Illustrate a picture that matches a specific event from the story.

Teaching tips

  • Start with the illustrate-and-staple booklet so students internalize story order before the color-cut-paste worksheet.

  • Use the six-picture color-cut-paste version for younger students who need visual anchors rather than writing.

  • Print the PowerPoint version when text boxes or spacing need to be adjusted for different reading levels.

Skills covered

  • Story sequencing — students order eight events of The Three Little Pigs from the mother pig's send-off to the third pig's brick house holding.

  • Fine-motor cutting and pasting — students color, cut out, and glue six story pictures into numbered spaces in sequence.

  • Narrative retelling — students illustrate and staple a picture booklet retelling each pig's encounter with the wolf.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

How many different sequencing formats does this include?

Three: a picture-and-caption booklet to illustrate and staple, a numbered worksheet with cutout event strips, and a color-cut-and-paste picture set.

Do the three pigs' encounters with the wolf play out the same way?

No — the straw and stick houses are blown down and their pigs eaten, but the third pig's brick house holds, and the pig outwits the wolf when he tries the chimney.
