Drag and drop to learn the months of the year and how to identify dates on a calendar with an engaging drag-and-drop interactive activity.
Teach The Months of the Year With a Digital Learning Activity!
Whether you’re a few weeks into the school year or a few months in, it’s never the wrong time to build up your students’ conceptual understanding of time and how to use a calendar. It’s an everyday skill often bypassed in the busy early years classroom. This year, we encourage you to carve out a little time and pull in some direct instruction to help your students learn to use a calendar.
A Drag and Drop Interactive for Early Years!
If you’re looking for a fun way to help your students locate the date, month, and specific dates on a calendar, this is the resource for you! This interactive, drag-and-drop Google Slides activity is designed for Foundations students or First-Years needing a bit of a refresher. It encourages students to use a calendar to find the following things.
- When given a specific date, students will identify the day that comes next or the day that comes before the given date.
- Identify the number of days in a month
- Identify the ordinal number corresponding to each month of the year.
