Little Red Riding Hood | Story Retelling | Graphic Organizers

The set approaches retelling in more than one format. One organizer pairs drawing and writing with temporal prompts from first through last, while another asks children to colour and cut event pictures before gluing them in order. Numbered pages provide space to describe a longer six-part sequence. These options allow learners to move from visual ordering toward written narration while staying focused on the beginning, intervening events, and ending of the same familiar story.
