Circle What Happens Next to the Ice Pop

Before your child marks an answer, ask what do you think will happen? and listen to the reason. Then tell the whole story aloud with the first and next pictures.

Circle what happens next, like a melted ice pop in the hot sun or rain after dark gray clouds. The directions on the page read: An adult reads the words aloud. Look at the first picture in each row and ask: What happens next? Your child circles the picture that shows what happens next. The page opens with a worked example, and an answer key is included.

Yes, both. We made it for Preschool reading comprehension, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with what happens next. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

5 printable worksheets, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.

These are written for preschool children, roughly ages 3-5. Start with the first few pages, use the free preview to judge the fit, and come back to harder ones as your child gets steadier.

No. Most pages ask children to circle, match, color, or cut and paste, and a grown-up can read the instructions aloud. Pages that do ask for letters, like letter tracing, start with tracing over dashed guides.
