Days of the Week Freebie!

Wednesday, July 2, 2014

Get to know the days of the week with these FREE calendar toppers. It's important that students know the order of the days of the week and how to spell them too. These calendar toppers can be used in a variety of ways.

Post the days of the week at your calendar station. Cut the words: yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Move these words as the week goes on. Yesterday was Monday, Today is Tuesday, and Tomorrow is Wednesday. Keep reciting the days of the week with students.
Use these strips during your small group time. Cut the strips apart and mix them up. Let the students put the day of the week in order.
Post the strips on your word wall for students to be able to spell them correctly.
For a fun warm-up activity, give the strips to 7 students. Have those students go to the front of the classroom to organize themselves in order of the days of the week. Make multiple copies and make groups of 7 students to organize themselves. This activity gets students up and moving around. This will help them stay engaged and learn!
