Recalling and Predicting
Talk about the previous days weather at calendar time to help the
children predict the weather for future days. Ask the children to

When children are first learning about calendars, each day is counted
individually. For example,if a child wants to know what the date will be
in three days, he will count ahead three days; for a week, he will count
ahead seven days.Once the child understands that a week is seven days
long, show them how to find the date a week from now by looking at
the date below the current date. Ask children to find dates two weeks
ahead,and so on.
