Room on the Broom Activities for Comprehension

There are a variety of different Room on the Broom activities that will help deepen comprehension of the story.

First, sequencing the events in a story is an important skill for our little learners to develop. For this skill, I like to have my students create an interactive broomstick retelling craft.

Another way we sequence the story is by mixing and fixing pocket chart sentences. As they are putting these sentences together, they will need to make sure to sequence the events in the correct order.

These same sentences can be found in our emergent reader. We also use these sentences to practice old and new sight words, as we are reading.
