All Impact Stories Technology-Enhanced Learning

Story Sequencing with Wordwall

Pupils sequenced beginning, middle and end independently, with visibly higher engagement.

Independent pupils sequencing beginning, middle and end

Context

A Year 1 English unit on story sequencing, where pupils often lose the thread between beginning, middle and end.

Approach

I used a Wordwall activity to make story structure visible and playful, letting pupils physically order events into beginning, middle and end.

Impact

Engagement rose and pupils sequenced events independently, with more confidence retelling a story in order.

Reflection

The interactivity carried the concept further than a worksheet would have. I would reuse the same activity with a familiar class text so pupils sequence a story they already know before tackling a new one.
