Lake Michigan (the second-largest by volume and third-largest by area; the only one entirely in the U.S.)
Lake Huron (the third-largest by volume; the second largest in area)
Lake Erie (the smallest by volume and shallowest)
Lake Ontario (the second-smallest in volume and smallest in area, much lower elevation than the rest)"
H. O. M. E. S is the acronym you can use to remember them.

The Great Lakes in North America are a group of five, very large lakes on and near the Canadian-United States border. These lakes are the largest group of fresh water lakes in the world and are sometimes referred to as inland seas.
Lake Superior is the deepest and largest of the Great Lakes, and is large than the Czech Republic. Lake Michigan is the only of the Great Lakes that is entirely in the United States. Lake Michigan is the second largest lake of the Great Lakes, in terms of volume.
Lake Huron is in both Canada and the United States, and is the second largest of the Great Lakes in terms of area. Lake Erie is the shallowest, as well as the smallest of the Great Lakes in terms of volume. Lake Ontario is at a much lower altitude than the other Great Lakes, and is the smallest of the Great Lakes in area.
Oftentimes, people will use a mnemonic for recalling the names of the lakes. This mnemonic is the word HOME. It stands for Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie and Superior, respectively. This mnemonic does not place any of the lakes in any kind of order, but is used merely in order to remember the names of the lakes.

When I was at school (a long time ago) I used to remember them by 'Some Masters Hate Eating Oranges'; the initials, as you have already been told, standing for Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie & Ontario.
