From Farm to Store Storyboard

2nd Grade Social StudiesEconomics and Trade2 pages

About this worksheet

Students play director of a TV show called "How Did That Get Here?" and plan an episode about a loaf of bread. First they answer two planning questions about where bread begins and what transportation the story needs. Then they draw six storyboard panels, from the farm and the flour mill to the delivery truck and the family table, each with a one-sentence caption that says who is working. This two-page 2nd grade economics task fits C3 Framework indicator D2.Geo.7.K-2. There is no answer key, since the drawings and captions are open.

What's inside this worksheet

Plan Your Show

Question 1 asks where the bread's story begins, with a hint to think about what bread is made of. Question 2 asks what kinds of transportation the show will need.

TV Show Storyboard

Six labeled panels run On the Farm, To the Flour Mill, At the Bakery, On the Delivery Truck, The Grocery Store, and Time to Eat. Each has a caption line under the drawing.

How teachers use it

Sequencing lesson

Model Panel 2 before students start. Many second graders do not know flour comes from wheat, and a quick photo of a mill saves a lot of blank panels.

Art block

Remind students that stick figures are fine, as the directions say. Spend the time on captions instead, since naming who does the work is the part most drawings skip.

Partner share

Pairs present their storyboards as if pitching the show to a TV boss. Listeners check that each caption names a worker, such as the farmer, the baker, or the truck driver.
