Numbers&Me

Counting days forward and back

Grade 3 · Time and calendars

If today is 19 August, what will the date be a number of days from today, or a number of days before? The student picks the right date from five.

Many questions cross into the next or the previous month, so the student needs to know how many days each month has. Today's real date is used, so the questions change with the calendar.
