LU Lesson Plan: Ordering Objects by Size

LEARNING OBJECTIVE:
Students will be able to order 3 of the same objects in different sizes from longest to shortest.

ASSESSMENTS:
Students will demonstrate their understanding by correctly placing three labeled objects into designated boxes for longest, medium, and shortest.

KEY POINTS:

  • Understanding size comparison: longest, medium, and shortest.
  • Vocabulary: longest, medium, shortest.
  • Using a graphic organizer to visualize ordering.
  • Importance of clear labeling and sorting.
  • Developing fine motor skills through handling objects.

OPENING:

  • Begin with a question: “Who has seen different sizes of the same object? Can you think of an example?”
  • Show the objects to the class and discuss what makes them different sizes.
  • Introduce the graphic organizer and explain how it will help sort the objects.

INTRODUCTION TO NEW MATERIAL:

  • Introduce the labels: longest, medium, and shortest. 
  • Use the graphic organizer to demonstrate how to place each object in the correct box.
  • Point to each object while saying its size and label. 
  • Anticipate misconceptions: Some students may confuse medium with shortest. Reinforce with examples.

GUIDED PRACTICE:

  • Distribute 3 objects to each student or pair. 
  • Model how to sort the objects using the graphic organizer, starting from the longest to the shortest.
  • Ask guiding questions: “Which one do you think is the longest?” “Can you find the shortest one?”
  • Monitor student performance by checking their graphic organizers and providing feedback.

INDEPENDENT PRACTICE:

  • Students will complete their own graphic organizer with a set of new objects.
  • Ensure they label correctly and place objects in the right order.
  • Encourage them to check their work with a partner before submitting.

CLOSING:

  • Review the labels and what they mean. 
  • Ask students to share one object they ordered and its size.
  • Reinforce the importance of size comparison in everyday life.

EXTENSION ACTIVITY:

  • For students who finish early, provide extra objects of different sizes and ask them to create a story using their ordered objects.

HOMEWORK:

  • Ask students to find three objects at home that are different sizes and to order them from longest to shortest, bringing their findings to class.

STANDARDS ALIGNED:

  • Visual impaired, dyslexic, and bilingual students. 
  • New Generation Learning Standards. 
  • 6-8 R1: Cite textual evidence to support an analysis of what the text says explicitly/implicitly and make logical inferences.
