46 Presidents and American Symbols: Supplemental Guide 2B | The Legend of George Washington and the Cherry Tree
Extensions 15 minutes
Sequencing the Story (Instructional Master 2B-1)
Note: You may differentiate this activity as needed by having students
arrange the images in order without gluing them. Then, as a class,
order Image Cards 7, 8, and 9 together. Have students check their
work to make sure they have the correct order before gluing the
images in the boxes.- Explain to students that the images on their activity page show three
events that happened in the legend of George Washington and the
cherry tree. However, the images are not in the correct order. - Tell students that they are going to retell the legend of George
Washington and the cherry tree by cutting out the three images and
arranging them in the order in which they happened in the story. - Explain that they should glue the picture that shows what happened
in the beginning of the story in the first box, the picture that shows
what happened in the middle of the story in the second box, and the
picture that shows what happened at the end of the story in the last
box. - After students have glued the three images in order, have partner
pairs or home-language peers retell the legend using their image
sequences.
