Max Maths, Year 1, Practice, Days of the week

In the Max Maths Year 1 practice activity, children are invited to engage with the concept of sequencing by organising the days of the week in their correct order. The task presents the days as jumbled and requires the young learners to match each day to its corresponding position in the weekly calendar, using ordinal numbers. For example, children will need to identify that Wednesday is the 3rd day of the week, not the 1st as listed, and correctly place the other days such as Saturday, Monday, Thursday, Tuesday, Sunday, and Friday in their respective ordinal positions from first to seventh.

This exercise is designed to help students familiarise themselves with both the sequence of the days and the concept of ordinality. As they work through the activity, they will practice critical thinking and problem-solving skills to ensure each day is matched with the right number. After completing the task, students are directed to continue their learning by turning to page 185 in their workbook, where they can find more exercises to reinforce their understanding of the days of the week and their order.
