Help your students learn new concepts with this days of the week song. Children’s understanding of time, also known as temporal understanding, is not meaningful for children below first grade (Friedmann, 2000). Instead, the temporal concepts such as before lunch and after nap have much greater meaning. The learning goals associated with calendar time are more heavily weighted in math rather than time for this reason. Knowing what the date is i.e. January 2nd, 2016, is much less meaningful to young children than once though. Therefore, the purpose of knowing the days of the week is more rooted in vocabulary building than expecting children to know that tomorrow that if today is Monday, tomorrow is Tuesday. This days of the week song is a great way to introduce your students to this new vocabulary and prepare them to understand time later in their development.
