About this worksheet

Putting events in order is the backbone of every story and every routine. Knowing what comes first, next and last lets a child follow a recipe, tell what happened at school, and later write a story of their own. This worksheet gives one short routine in words, such as getting ready for school or sending a letter, printed once at the top, and then three questions, one for each part: which picture comes first, next and last.

The words first, next and last are printed in the story as well, so a beginning reader can find them. Standard and challenge sheets add a picture from another routine that does not belong. Ask your child to retell the routine in their own words before circling, because saying the order out loud makes it easy to see.

What your child will learn

  • Put the steps of a routine in order
  • Use first, next and last
  • Match a picture to a step in the story
  • Spot a picture that does not belong
