This worksheet asks you to put the pictures in the correct order to tell the story of "The Gingerbread Man."
Step-by-step reasoning:
1.
Find the beginning: Every story starts somewhere. Look for the picture that shows how the Gingerbread Man was made. The bottom-right panel shows a woman and a man standing next to an oven with a gingerbread man on a tray. This is where the story begins.
2.
Find the middle (the chase): After he is baked, the Gingerbread Man runs away. In the stories, he usually meets animals who want to eat him.
* The top-right panel shows a horse and the Gingerbread Man running.
* The bottom-left panel shows a fox looking at the Gingerbread Man.
* Usually, the Gingerbread Man meets several animals before meeting the tricky Fox. So, the horse scene likely happens before the fox scene.
3.
Find the end: The story ends when the Gingerbread Man gets caught. The top-left panel shows the Fox swimming in water with the Gingerbread Man sitting on his head/nose. In the classic tale, the Fox tricks the Gingerbread Man into hopping onto his nose to cross a river, and then eats him. This is the final part of the story.
Correct Order:
1.
Bottom-Right: Baking in the oven.
2.
Top-Right: Running past the Horse.
3.
Bottom-Left: Meeting the Fox on land.
4.
Top-Left: The Fox tricking him in the water.
Final Answer:
The correct order for the story panels is:
1. Bottom-Right (Baking)
2. Top-Right (Horse)
3. Bottom-Left (Fox on land)
4. Top-Left (Fox in water)
