Max Maths, Year 1, Learn together, Months of the year

In the 'Max Maths, Year 1, Learn together' series, young learners are introduced to the concept of the months of the year. This foundational topic is essential as it helps children understand the structure of the calendar year, which is comprised of 12 distinct months. The names of the months are presented in a clear and straightforward manner, starting with January and ending with December. The sequence is as follows: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, and December.

The interactive element of the lesson encourages children to engage with their peers by selecting their favourite month and sharing it with the class. This activity not only reinforces the names of the months but also allows students to learn about the preferences of others, fostering a sense of community and collaboration within the classroom. To consolidate their learning, students are directed to turn to page 185 in their workbooks where they can continue their exploration of the months of the year through additional exercises and activities.
