Dual Language Days of the Week Printable

Hi Fellow Teachers, Homeschoolers, and Language Learners!

Below is a printable you can use for your classrooms, homework folder, or calendar wall at home or school. All you have to do is get the pdf file through my t eachers pay teachers store.

I made the days of the week earlier this year by hand for my kiddos, but my handwriting is a bit too small for them to see it from the table. So I just knew it was time to make an improved set that would be visible to them at all times.

How do I use it?

1. Sing the song 'Days of the Week' to the tune of the Addam's Family theme song in English. Here's a good video through YouTube. Right after, we sing the song in Spanish.

2. This is when I introduce vocabulary such as "today - hoy", "yesterday - ayer" and "tomorrow, mañana". I use hand motions to teach the concepts. For example:

today - point fingers down
yesterday - use thumbs above shoulders which will indicate something's already happened.
tomorrow - turn hand from today to an open palm.

Please let me know if this makes sense...I could take a picture or do a video if you would like.

Once we know what day is today, I use colorful ribbon attached to a paper clip and clip it to the day we are currently on. The kids can do this part. They'll love it!

3. These are the questions you can ask as a final review for the calendar:

What day is today? Que dia es hoy?
What day was yesterday? Que dia fue ayer?
What day will be tomorrow? Que dia sera mañana?

I love having the days of the week posted on our wall, because it gives a visual count of which day of the week we will be going on a trip, having a visitor, going on a play date, etc.

When you use it, take a picture and send use the hashtag #TeachingwithFabi on Instagram so that I can see it too!

Happy Teaching! Hasta pronto!

I have two children and both of them are growing up bilingually. I speak to them in Spanish all day, while my husband speaks to them in English and Spanish.
