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.

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!

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.

After I did all the stuff above (thanks everyone!) I still had to kill a class period, so we did another mundane worksheet (I've attached) with a little more practice on superlatives and students gave their opinions.

Then we did classroom superlatives. (I remember doing this for the highschool yearbook and I still take pride in winning best smile! Haha) I first wrote every student's name on the board and had them stand up for everyone to look at for a few seconds. I made a sheet for the students to vote on who they think is the funniest, best dressed, best hair, etc..... And I stressed the importance of keeping the votes secret.

Big hit! I promised to reveal the results next class.
