More Review Games:
1. After completing the story, mix up the cards and have the children work together to place them in story order. For older children, divide them into teams and see which team can arrange a set correctly first.
2. Use the motions to review the story. Mix up the cards and have a child pick one, look at it without the other children seeing it, and then do the motion that goes with the picture. The other children should guess what the motion represents and say how it relates to the story.
3. If you have older children, place the pictures on a table before you read the story. Remind your students to pay attention as you read and to look for pictures that match what you are reading. When you are done reading, ask a student to pick one of the pictures and explain how it relates to the story.
