Use this worksheet as an independent practice to support learning the order of the days of the week.

Knowing the Days of the Week

Understanding the days of the week helps children grasp the concept of time and develop a sense of organisation. It allows them to anticipate future events, plan activities and establish routines. This skill is crucial for their daily life and helps create a sense of stability and predictability.

Learning the order of the days of the week involves memorisation and sequencing, which are essential cognitive skills for young students. This knowledge contributes to their overall memory development and ability to organise information logically.
