About this resource

Put seed-planting directions in order, then rewrite the procedure using time-order words.

  • A mixed-order set of seed-planting directions
  • Boxes for numbering the procedural steps
  • Writing lines for reconstructing the sequence

Curriculum reference — England: The supplied task assesses instruction sequence, not a completed plant-growth investigation. Sequencing a short procedural text supports Ontario Grade1 text-pattern recognition. The sequence of supplied written steps supports England Year2 relating items of information; not a claim to independent composition. Selected skills only; reference stage is not an overall reading age, complete curriculum coverage, or an automatic recommendation for every learner.
