As the children's knowledge of predicting events develops, teachers should choose more complex stories to enhance their understanding. Having the children put parts of a story in sequence helps them understand the order of events and gives them practice in predicting what comes next. Make cards for The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle or The Napping House by Audrey Wood. As the children put the cards in order, encourage them to retell the story.
