writing the date on the board
 

hello dear friends,

 

I have a question if you please concerning the dates ... when you write the date on the board do you add : th, st or rd... or not? 

any rules or it is a matter of choice ? 
thank you in advance

hello mouna , 
 There are different ways to write the date , but for Algerian pupils it �s better to introduce them the one you use the ordinal numbers with ; th, st , and .  Good luck

 Hi Mouna,
 
The (form of the) date is not obligatory but only a part of daily routine..... I personnally used to write 18/09/2016 and I let students SOMEtimes read it correctly. It depends on the level you �re teaching. If you want more practice , why not.
