This book introduces words related to the calendar, including months, days, seasons, and how to read dates and years. The teacher suggests creating a birthday calendar and celebrating birthdays on the last Friday of each month.

As the class plans their birthday party on the calendar, young readers begin to grasp the concept of future time. This provides a great opportunity to introduce “will” and “be going to” for talking about future plans in their lesson.

The book encourages repeated reading to deepen children’s understanding.
