It costs money to run a free website: our server costs alone are £400 per month. Last year we had 40,000 visitors to the site from whom we received only £40 in donations. We are not currently receiving any other income. At this rate, we will run out of money in the next few months and the site will be forced to close.

Please make a minimum donation of £5 to keep the site going. Thank you

Sequence pictures and comment on them

Commercially available sequencing pictures

Photo-copied pictures from a favourite book

Photos from an outing
  1. Give the child first 2 then 3 pictures to sequence appropriately. Share talking about the pictures first then see if the child can put them in order.
  2. Ask the child about the first picture e.g. 'Look.... who is this' 'Look.... what's happening?' etc. Can the child answer? Give a prompt if needed.
  3. Stick the pictures into a scrap book. Can the child show an adult or peer and comment on the pictures.

You may need to model this skill for children ie talking about what is in the picture.

Encourage children to give the information about their pictures to others who are not already 'in the know'! This is motivating and can make more sense to some children.
