Days of the Week
The days of the week are the seven days that make up our week. They help us organize our time and plan things like school, homework, and fun activities. Each day has its own name, and we use them to talk about what happens every day!
Lunes = Monday ā The first day of the week!
Example: “I go to school on Monday.”
Martes = Tuesday ā The second day of the week.
Example: “I have soccer practice on Tuesday.”
MiĆ©rcoles = Wednesday ā The middle day of the week!
Example: “We have English class on Wednesday.”
Jueves = Thursday ā The fourth day of the week.
Example: “My friends and I go to the park on Thursday.”
Viernes = Friday ā The fifth day, and itās almost the weekend!
Example: “We watch movies on Friday night.”
SĆ”bado = Saturday ā The first day of the weekend!
Example: “I love sleeping in on Saturday.”
Domingo = Sunday ā The last day of the week.
Example: “We have a family lunch on Sunday.”
We usually divide the days of the week into weekdays and the weekend.
Weekdays: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. These are the days you go to school and work.
Weekend: Saturday and Sunday. These are your rest days!
One last thing! In Spanish, the names of the days are usually written in lowercase (minĆŗscula), but in English, the names always start with a capital letter (mayĆŗscula). ā
Months
