Little Red Riding Hood Story Sequencing Worksheet for Preschoolers

Retelling Little Red Riding Hood through sequencing pictures asks 3-5 year olds to understand story structure — that events happen in a specific order and that order affects meaning — which is a foundational reading comprehension skill that comes before children can read the words themselves. Because the pictures have to be cut out and physically arranged, this worksheet also combines comprehension with fine motor practice, and having your child explain each scene before gluing it down pushes them to actively process the story rather than passively recall it.

How to use this worksheet

If your child already knows the story, briefly recall it together before starting; if not, read or tell a short version of Little Red Riding Hood first. Cut out the story pictures together, laying them out where your child can see all of them at once. Ask your child to describe what's happening in each picture, then have them figure out which event came first, second, and so on. Glue each picture down in the correct order, then have your child retell the whole story using the finished sequence as a guide.

Materials needed

  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Pencil

Extension activities

  • Have your child retell the full story out loud once the sequencing is glued down.
  • Ask your child to draw their favorite scene from the story in more detail.
  • Act out the story together, taking turns playing Red Riding Hood, Grandma, and the wolf.
  • Try sequencing a different familiar story the same way, using drawings instead of pre-made pictures.
  • Talk about the story's events in terms of your child's own day — what happened first, next, and last.
