Learning the months needs lots of repetition, so be sure to practice them often.
In addition to watchingThe Months Chantvideo, here are some activity ideas for the home or classroom.
Jump the Months
pop in and print a flashcard for each month.
If possible, laminate them so they will last longer.
Spread the flashcards on the floor and have students help you put them in the correct order.
Next, stand in a line next to January and jump to February, March, etc.
Have students sit in a circle.
Start by saying January and clapping the hand of the student to your right.
That student will say the next month as they clap the hand of the student next to them.
Continue around the circle saying all of the months of the year in order.
Start from January again.
Keep playing until there is only one student left.
Include special events, holidays and birthdays for each month.
When is the last day of school?
How about the 100th day of school?
you might have students draw pictures to represent things that happen during each month.
Hang it on the wall and use it to talk about the days, months and holidays.
