What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students put events in order on a simple timeline. With pictures and teacher questions, they explain what might have caused an event and what happened next.
What Mastery Looks Like
- A student orders pictures of rain, a puddle, someone stepping in it, and wet shoes. They explain that rain made the puddle and stepping in it made the shoes wet.
Common Misconceptions
- Some students reverse the order and say wet shoes caused the puddle. Others assume one event caused another just because it happened first.
How to Assess It
- Give students four pictures: rain, a puddle, someone stepping in it, and wet shoes. Ask them to number the pictures in order and tell you why the shoes got wet.

Ways to Teach It
Pour water onto a sponge, then squeeze it over a tray; have students draw the steps in order and explain why the tray got wet.
Show a picture of a muddy playground and ask, “What might have happened before this? What makes you think so?”
Give pairs cards showing a full cup, a bumped table, and spilled juice; have them order the cards and explain the spill.
After recess, draw a three-box timeline of the bell ringing, students lining up, and students entering class; ask why they lined up.
