About the Crazy Cody! Worksheet

Crazy Cody! is an engaging language arts activity that combines storytelling with temporal word practice in an entertaining narrative format. This interactive and printable worksheet, that aligns with the Common Core State Standards, Crazy Cody, presents students with a fun story about a lost dog and challenges them to complete it using appropriate temporal words from a provided word bank.

The worksheet features a charming story with multiple blank spaces where students must insert temporal words that maintain the narrative flow and logical sequence of events. With nine different temporal expressions to choose from, including phrases like "in that moment," "all of a sudden," and "eventually," students learn to create coherent time relationships within the story. The cheerful illustrations of Cody the dog and a sandwich add visual interest while supporting the story's content.
