First, Next, and Last

Now let's use three order words. Listen: First, Noor mixed flour and eggs. Next, she baked the cake in the oven.

Last, she ate a slice. Yum! Last means the very end.

If we mixed up the order, it would be silly: you can't eat a cake before it's baked!

Hold up one, two, three fingers as you retell first, next, last.
