Stories wouldn’t make much sense without transition words. One kind of transition indicator–sequential words–helps a writer order events, digress, and signal to the reader that the story will be ending soon. Readers will learn all about these important kinds of transitions, including when and how to use them. Sequential words will be introduced through relatable examples, complemented by helpful fact boxes and colorful photographs. The main content expresses a vital concept of the common core English language standards, while the everyday situations presented will engage readers with the new material in a fun way.
