Louise’s Café Order: Activities

Shared Reading · Ages 19+. Read the questions and clues together, with support if wanted. Learners can talk, point, sign or choose an answer. For Jumbled Words, show the matching vocabulary word and build it together; learners do not need to read independently.

Jumbled Words

Use the clue to make a word from the story. Drag the letters with a mouse or finger, or tap a letter and then a space.

Put the story in order

Drag the pictures into order from first to last with a mouse or finger. Or tap a picture, then tap where it should go. Use arrow keys to move a focused picture.

Tell the story

Practise describing an invented order mistake with speech, pointing or a written note. Offer support without speaking over the learner or requiring them to accept an unwanted item.
