Twigs Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 seeds (here) flower tree basket apple seeds (or here) pie seeds (or here) sort of like - which came 1st, the chicken or the egg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justasque Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Without much thought: Flower, apple, seeds, tree, basket, pie. Obviously the flower, apple, seeds, tree part is a cycle, with no beginning or end. The basket--> pie part is kind of an offshoot, so I started with flower so that I could end the cycle on tree and thus move off to basket. The apple alone is kind of non-specific - could stand for the apple the seed came from, or a harvested apple from the basket about to go into the pie. It took me a while to decide that the cookie-looking things were apple flowers (or are they?). How'd I do?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Hmm, I think the one with just the apple would be a sort of "introductory" label, and the rest would go seed, blossom, tree, bucket, pie. Or maybe the apple alone is supposed to be where the seeds come from. So apple, seeds, blossom, tree, bucket, pie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Mungo Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) No idea. It would be easier if the pictures were more similar: a seed, a sapling, a tree with flowers, a tree with fruit, a basket of fruit, a cut up apple, an apple pie Edited October 18, 2011 by Mrs Mungo Iphone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denise in Florida Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Seeds, tree, flowers, apples, basket, pie, (seeds could also go here) This shows a chronological order of; plant seed, grow tree, tree blooms, apples set on, pick apples, make pie. I my opinion this is not a good example of sequencing cards. If I were you I would not even use it. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kesmom Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Hilarious! I thought it was apple, seeds, blossom, tree, basket, pie. Dh thought it was completely different, but I don't remember his suggestion after reading everything here. I think my idea came from the little poem "eat an apple, save the core, plant some seeds and grow some more". I already printed this and I'm pretty sure it's going to just go in the coloring basket at this point. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justasque Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Well, it does make an interesting picture set from which to tell a story. You just have to keep in mind that there clearly isn't a "right" answer. The work for the child is in coming up with a reasonably coherent story explaining the logic/reasoning he used to order the cards. It might even be fun to print off several copies of the cards, so the story could be even more creative. A bright kid could do a lot with this, if you keep it fun and open-ended (and serve some pie to go with it LOL!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolly Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) My first thought without peeking at other peoples' choices: flower apple seed tree basket pie I hate first grade activities. They rarely make sense to me. Too many correct answers are often possible.:tongue_smilie: So, what is the "right" answer?

MeaganS Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I thought the seeds were water drops, so I was going to say: Apple Water drops Flowers Tree Bushel Pie Otherwise, it could be many different things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommy22alyns Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 seedsflowers single apple tree of apples bucket of apples apple pie This. But I definitely see how it could be confusing! I think I'm going to try that applesauce recipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacia Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I would say: Seeds Flowers Tree (after flowers because fruit is on the tree) Basket Apple Pie Of course, there are various valid answers as the drawings are rather ambiguous. You could also sort by # of items in the drawing (though the tree & the basket might be a close tie), alphabetical order of items, small items to big items, etc.... :001_huh: :lol: No, I'm obviously *not* smarter than a 1st grader! ;):tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silliness7 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) link How would YOU order the sequencing activity (3rd picture down) if you were doing this? There is a disagreement in this house as to how it goes. ;) that's a cute graphic but the sequencing is not well done, imo. My best guess would be seeds flowers apple tree bushel of apples single apple apple pie ETA: Although now reading the replies starting with the single apple makes a lot of sense to me too.

Amy in NH Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Didn't read the other posts. I think it should go: Seed Flower Tree Bushel Apple Pie IMO, this is a very poor sequencing activity. I wouldn't give it to my children. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
