About 90% pupils sequencing the events of a story independently

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 about 90% of pupils sequenced the 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.
