Calendar

Math

• The child has learned to identify and name the days of the week.
• They have learned to recognize the numeric representation of dates on a calendar.
• The child has practiced counting the number of days in a given month.
• They have learned about the concept of time and how it relates to scheduling activities on a calendar.

For continued development, encourage the child to create their own calendar using blank templates or drawing one from scratch. They can practice writing the days of the week and dates, as well as adding events or activities to specific days. This will help reinforce their understanding of the calendar and develop their organizational skills.
