This lesson focuses a lot on the use of comparatives and superlatives (+er and +est). You may consider taking a look at these resources which were previously available on the subject...

I put up two pictures on the Mario game PPT and had the students compare the two pictures.

Here is the powerpoint that I made from the original template that someone kindly provided. Hope it helps.....and if any suggestions or criticisms....please feel free. I feel that I may be over doing it a bit, but my studenst are pretty advanced catch on quick so hopefully it won't be too much for them. Hope all is well with everybody

Here is my first lesson for this chapter. The answers for the compare worksheet are on the PPT. After the introduction on the PPT, I'm going to do a little book work, then the compare worksheet, then the character worksheet.

Combined a bunch of ideas from here. Hope it helps someone.

hi all!
here is my prezi for this lesson

http://prezi.com/z2rhonn18e4b/grade-1-lesson-11-the-largest-longest-tallest/

*** warning: there is a question "who is the best teacher in school" and the answer is me!!^^ so you may want to change that for your own class - though I am cute (j/k)

i am currently modifying a Lucky Wheel game for this lesson as well and I'll add that as soon as it's ready

~enjoy!

I took a few ideas from here and put them together with some of my own. There is a link to the "daft hands" video for an intro to the class and a review of what we talked about the week before. I like to spend the first few minutes reviewing things for two reasons: 1) It's easier for the students to internalize and remember when they hear it several times. 2) It's an easy way for me to kill 5 or 6 minutes of class. =)

Comparatives Jeopardy game ppt

The comparatives worksheet helped a lot Sheila~

mattvanni · « **Reply #16 on:** November 04, 2011, 03:12:28 pm »

A quick worksheet for comparatives. Used this before one of the bomb games to get kids thinking (and give them a little help for the game).

Here's my ppt for the activity book section and then I used the worksheet posted by someone earlier. Only covering the one syllable words first. The ppt has animations etc to help them understand it. Just did this lesson now and it went really well. They aren't the brightest crayons but they got it.

Attaching the worksheet as well just to make it easier but I repeat, the worksheet is not mine, thanks to the OP!

Here's my comparative and superlative lesson. Worked really well when I used it at the beginning of the year.
Start off by getting the kids to guess who is stronger faster, whatever with the superheroes on the pp. Then to do the comparative and superlative worksheet with the class. After that have them look at the character descriptions and play the guessing game on the pp. After that go over some different superpowers with the kids, then have them draw their own superhero. Whammy. I made the worksheet two sided.

I based my lesson on weird animal facts, which the students really seemed to love.

This slideshow contains statements like "The sloth is the world's slowest animal" and "The ant is the world's most common animal", and they have to answer true or false. There are lots of nice pictures, and links to cool youtube videos embedded in the slideshow.

The ppt took about 35 mins, with commentary/explanation from co-teacher. The worksheet took around 10 mins.
