Looking for a calendar set you can print and use that also fosters a love of literacy?
The Story Time Calendar Set does that and more. This set will introduce children to twelve stories, show them the days of the week, teach them the seasons, and encourage them to identify weather conditions.
It comes with date cards in seven different colors. This is so that you can choose the color you want for the month or create a pattern of alternating colors for pattern recognition practice.
The components of this set can also be used to reinforce color and number recognition. Just use the date cards for scavenger hunts, matching activities, Memory games, or sorting activities.
Here’s a complete list of the printable items in the Story Time Calendar Set:
- Instructions for assembly
- Days of the week cards and “Yesterday was,” “Today is,” and “Tomorrow will be” cards
- 11 weather cards and a “The weather is…” card

- 12 month cards each based on a different story
