It's National Picture Book Month! Let's find the perfect picture books to practice story sequencing.
November is National Picture Book Month. Picture books are central to our Belle's Book Club Residencies and Belle's Book Club Playgroups. Good picture books are the perfect companion for dramatic play.
In our Belle's Book Residencies, we pair dramatic play with the perfect picture book to sequence and retell stories.
Story Sequencing is an essential reading comprehension skill for young readers because it helps them understand the plot of a story. Children can better understand the characters' motivations and actions when they can sequence events. They can also follow the storyline and predict what will happen next.
Using dramatic play can enhance and reinforce literacy skills.
Great books + Dramatic Play = A Fun and Meaningful Learning Experience
