Little Red Riding Hood picture sequence worksheet for ordering story events.

Let’s think about the story of Little Red Riding Hood step by step.

First, we need to remember what happens in the story:

1. Little Red Riding Hood leaves her house to go visit her grandma.
2. She walks through the woods and meets a wolf.
3. The wolf runs ahead to grandma’s house, tricks grandma, and hides her.
4. When Little Red arrives, the wolf pretends to be grandma — but then he jumps out!
5. A woodcutter (or hunter) comes and saves them.
6. At the end, everyone is safe and happy again.

Now let’s look at each picture and match it to the story order:

🖼️ Picture 1 (top left):
Little Red is walking in the woods with the wolf nearby. → This is early in the story — after she leaves home, before reaching grandma’s house.

🖼️ Picture 2 (top right):
The wolf is jumping out of bed, and someone (probably the woodcutter) is raising an axe. → This is near the end — when the wolf is caught.

🖼️ Picture 3 (middle left):
Little Red is talking to “grandma” in bed — but it’s actually the wolf wearing grandma’s clothes. → This is when she arrives at the house and gets tricked.

🖼️ Picture 4 (middle right):
Little Red is saying goodbye to her mom outside their house. → This is the very beginning — before she even starts her journey.

🖼️ Picture 5 (bottom center):
A small cottage in the woods — this must be grandma’s house. But no one is there yet. → This should come after she says goodbye, but before she meets the wolf or arrives at the house.

Wait — let’s reorder carefully:

✔ Step 1: Little Red says goodbye to her mom → Picture 4 (middle right)

✔ Step 2: She walks toward grandma’s house → Picture 5 (bottom center) shows the house from afar — maybe as she approaches? Or perhaps this is just setting the scene. Actually, looking again — Picture 1 shows her already in the woods meeting the wolf. So maybe Picture 5 is meant to show her arriving at the house? No — in Picture 5, she’s standing alone outside the house. That might be *before* the wolf gets there.

Actually, let’s use logic:

- First: She leaves home → Picture 4 (saying goodbye)
- Second: She walks through the woods and meets the wolf → Picture 1
- Third: The wolf races ahead to grandma’s house → so next should be him getting there or pretending to be grandma → Picture 3 (her talking to “grandma” who is really the wolf)
- Fourth: The wolf jumps out → Picture 2 (woodcutter saving them)
- Fifth: What about Picture 5? It shows her standing outside the cottage. Maybe that’s when she first arrives — before going inside? But in Picture 3, she’s already inside talking to the wolf.

Hmm — perhaps Picture 5 is meant to be her arriving at the house — so between meeting the wolf and going inside.

But wait — in many versions, she goes straight to the house after meeting the wolf. Let’s try this order:

1. Say goodbye → Picture 4
2. Walk through woods, meet wolf → Picture 1
3. Arrive at grandma’s house → Picture 5 (standing outside)
4. Go inside, talk to “grandma” → Picture 3
5. Wolf jumps out, woodcutter saves them → Picture 2

That makes sense!

So the correct order is:

➡️ 1st: Picture 4 (say goodbye)
➡️ 2nd: Picture 1 (meet wolf in woods)
➡️ 3rd: Picture 5 (arrive at house)
➡️ 4th: Picture 3 (talk to fake grandma)
➡️ 5th: Picture 2 (wolf caught, saved)

Final Answer:
The correct order of the pictures to tell the story is:
Picture 4 → Picture 1 → Picture 5 → Picture 3 → Picture 2
