A teacher would call this first, next and last. By doing this, what does a first grade teacher want her students to understand?

By teaching that a story has a beginning, middle and end, first grade students learn that thoughts can be organized and structured. It's the concept that's important at this stage rather than total comprehension.

The teacher's objective would be to teach the students sequencing. Stories have a logical order. If you are asking this question because you have to come up with an objective for a lesson plan, avoid saying, "The students will understand . . ." Understanding isn't measurable unless you have the students do something to demonstrate it.

Life has a beginning middle and an end.
Explaining to children use something they can understand like a simple story.
Beginning of the story we meet the characters, find out what they are about.
Middle of the story we find out there's something happening, a problem that needs solved, an action taking place.
End the problem is solved and the action completed.
You can show this in a cartoon show, a fairy tale, a picture book to explain the sequence to children.
Want to test their understanding
try this:
As an assignment have story cards with pictures of something happening. Scramble the cards up and have the kids arrange them any way they want but they have to tell you the story they created from the cards.

If you leave out one of three ingreadients, it does not make any
sense, so forth you have no story. Your left with a jumbled
mystery, like something is missing. In junior high school you will
recieve a C minus on your paper. Teacher wants her students to learn how to tell a complete story .

The begining gives us something to look forward to, the middle tells us what it is and how it is lived and the end is the culmination of the facts.
To a first grader, it means:
Everything in the world has a begining or a start
The middle is when we live it
The end is when we die, it is the finish.
Ask a first grader....I did!!

Life has a beginning, a middle and an ending. It is the order of the universe. Anything else would be nonsensical, and unfulfilling.

make sure the students understand there is always a climax and a turning point of the story. Without one, there isnt a story. and make sure that they understand that santa isnt real!

Sequencing--first graders should be able to retell a story in the correct sequence. It's part of reading comprehension.

just as insects (example) have head, thorax, and abdomen, thus things gotta be complete in their nature. so a story gotta flow, hence the start, middle, end.
