The ABCD model of instructional objectives consists of four components: Audience, Behavior, Condition, and Degree. Here are specific objectives created from the general objective of reading and writing time, and understanding the relationships between units of time:

Objective 1:

  • Audience: Students in a 3rd-grade classroom
  • Behavior: Will accurately read and interpret time displayed on analog and digital clocks
  • Condition: Given a set of 10 different clocks (5 analog and 5 digital)
  • Degree: With 90% accuracy, within a 15-minute time frame

Objective 2:

  • Audience: 4th-grade students
  • Behavior: Will convert units of time between hours, minutes, and seconds
  • Condition: Given a worksheet with 15 conversion problems
  • Degree: Achieve at least 80% correct answers

Objective 3:

  • Audience: 5th-grade students
  • Behavior: Will calculate elapsed time between two given times
  • Condition: In pairs, using a scenario card that provides start and end times of an event
  • Degree: Successfully determine the elapsed time in 4 out of 5 scenarios

Objective 4:

  • Audience: Students in a 2nd-grade classroom
  • Behavior: Will write the time in both standard and written format (e.g., 3:45 or "three forty-five")
  • Condition: Given a set of 5 different times to convert
  • Degree: With 100% accuracy in a 10-minute activity

Objective 5:

  • Audience: Middle school students
  • Behavior: Will explain the relationships between different units of time (e.g., how many seconds are in a minute, minutes in an hour, etc.)
  • Condition: During a group discussion
  • Degree: Contribute at least 3 correct statements or relationships

These objectives are tailored to specific audiences and use measurable behaviors, ensuring clarity for assessment.
