There are twelve months in a year

Not all months have the same number of days.

Here is a rhyme to help you remember the number of days in the months.

30 days has September

April, June and November

All the rest have 31

Except February which has 28 days clear

But 29 in each leap year .

A leap year is every four years

See if you can write the days of the week in the boxes.

If you are correct, the colour will change to blue.

If it stays red, check the spelling and try again.

Note: macros must be enabled for the text to change from red to blue.
