Navigating Calendars

Worksheet Description

The worksheet is a learning activity centered on the recognition and understanding of ordinal numbers as they are used to represent dates on a calendar. It features a stylized calendar with ordinal numbers from 1st to 28th. Above the calendar, there is a list of ordinal numbers in word form, such as “first,” “second,” “fifth,” and so on, up to “twenty-seventh.” Students are instructed to circle the dates on the calendar that correspond to the ordinal numbers listed above.

The purpose of the worksheet is to teach students how to correlate ordinal number words with their symbolic representations on a calendar. It helps to develop their ability to identify and understand the sequence of dates and their corresponding ordinal terms. This skill is fundamental for time management and recognizing important dates. Additionally, the exercise can aid in improving the students’ reading and comprehension skills as they match the words to the correct symbols.
