Sequencing
This program teaches students to sequence a series (e.g., numbers and letters) and the steps of an event. This cognitive and reasoning skill helps students understand the order of events, sets the stage for them to later learn casual relationships, and make predictions about what happens next.
Why Because
This program teaches children concepts related to why and because under different circumstances.
Inferencing and Understanding Pictures (with Sequencing)
This program is designed to teach students to infer what is going on in a series of pictures and put them in sequence. Additionally, through why/because questions, the program teaches students that events happen for a reason. Embedded in the program will be instructions related to social concepts.
