Let’s think about the story step by step.

We need to put the pictures in order so the story makes sense.

First, what would Mary do before anything else? She probably went to the garden first — that’s where everything happens. So “Mary went to the garden” should be #1.

Then, while she’s in the garden, she starts collecting flowers. That’s a normal thing to do in a garden. So “She was collecting flowers” should be #2.

Next, something scary happens — she sees a spider! The picture says “Suddenly she saw a spider.” That comes after she’s already there and doing something. So this is #3.

After seeing the spider, she gets scared. The picture says “Mary was scared.” That makes sense right after seeing the spider. So this is #4.

Finally, because she’s scared, she runs away. “She ran away” is the last thing that happens. So this is #5.

Let’s check the order:
1. Mary went to the garden.
2. She was collecting flowers.
3. Suddenly she saw a spider.
4. Mary was scared.
5. She ran away.

That tells a clear, logical story.
