About this resource

What's inside this resource

Days of the Week Coloring Pages gives preschool and kindergarten children one full page for each day, Monday through Sunday. Every page has the day name in large outlined letters to color, a big, simple picture with open shapes, and a strip that shows the day before, the day itself and the day after.

An adult reads the short direction and the day names aloud, and children say the day, color the word and picture, and point to the matching name in the strip. The pictures are playful motifs, from balloons on Monday to a snail on Sunday, rather than activities tied to a particular day. A one-page teacher guide lists the week in Monday-start and Sunday-start order and suggests simple questions such as which day comes after Sunday.

  • Preschool to kindergarten: day names and the order of the week
  • Eight pages: seven coloring pages and a teacher guide
  • Print options: color PDF and black-and-white PDF

In the classroom

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Recognize and say the names of the days of the week.

  • Name the day that comes before and after a given day.

  • Understand that the days repeat in the same order every week.

Teaching tips

  • Read the direction and day names aloud; children point and say each day with a helper.

  • Put the pages in your class calendar order; for a Sunday-start week, move Sunday to the front.

  • Try the guide's questions aloud, such as "Find a day that starts with T."

Skills covered

  • Day names: each page features one day in large outlined letters for children to say and color.

  • Sequence: the before and after strip shows each day's neighbors, such as Monday before Tuesday.

  • Repeating pattern: the guide shows that Monday follows Sunday, so the week starts again.
