My child played with a calendar

English Language Arts

• The student learned about days of the week, months of the year, and how to read and interpret them on the calendar.
• They practiced forming complete sentences to describe upcoming events or activities shown on the calendar.
• They engaged in storytelling by creating narratives based on the activities or events marked on the calendar.
• The activity helped develop the student's understanding of time concepts such as past, present, and future.

Encourage further development by incorporating storytelling with the events on the calendar, encouraging the child to write short narratives or poems about the activities marked. Additionally, ask the child to create their own events and mark them on the calendar, prompting them to think about future plans and scheduling.
