Year 3 Mathematics worksheet: time and calendars

An aspect to learn over time that is often neglected is the use of a calendar. They don't need any explanation for children who do not come across them before and they come in different formats. The month appears in this spreadsheet starts the week on Monday, although many start on Sunday. It may seem puzzling to children as to why there are some ' empty ' days at the beginning of the first week so it's a good idea to have a calendar with available all year.

This can lead to much discussion, such as the number of days in each month, why birthdays on any other day of the week every year etc.
