For the grown-up

Begin with the worked example: take paper, draw a heart, show the picture. Point to the numbered pictures as you say first, next and last.

Read the practice story: First, you fold the paper. Next, you add a tail. Last, you fly your kite. Ask your child to point to those actions in story order.

Read it again if helpful. No numbering or writing is required. This is an imagined sequencing story, not a complete set of kite-making instructions.

Answers: First fold the paper (middle); next add a tail (right); last fly the kite (left).

A grown-up reads along. Try one activity at a time, and stop whenever your child needs a break. These are invitations to practise together, not tests.
