Write down the words that you think show the order.

What sequence words did you write down?

Order of events

1. First
2. Then
3. Next
4. Before 
5. After

Rule 1

We use a comma after sequence adverbs when they introduce the sentence that describes the action.

Example:

Next, I will show you how to toast bread.

Rule 2

We use first to express that action happens before any others.

Example:

First, I need to have a cup of coffee before I start my work.

Rule 3

We use next to express that action happens immediately after another action, or as soon as possible. 

Example:

I went to Toscana this summer. Next, I want to visit Napoli as soon as I can.

Rule 4

We can use then to express that action happens after another action if it’s not immediate. 

Example:

I am going to visit Napoli this fall. Then, I want to explore the French Riviera.

Rule 5

We can use finally to express that action happens at the end, after any others, or after a long time.

Example:

I've worked all day. Finally, I can go to bed.
