Light sensor question

[AlmightSo]

So im making a marble sorter and im just wondering how can i make the light sensor react on 3 different values for example lets say:
wood marble:1000
glass marble:1900
metal marble:900
how can i make this so it operates a motor a certain amount of time if the light sensor detects it A simple if lightsensor value is <900 start motor? . Also how much time does the light sensor need to find a value?
