I don �t have an activity but I have a grid to help to say the date properly. I can send it to you if you give me your e mail

You didn �t mention how old or what level your students are... I teach dates and years to my students when they are still fairly young (10 yrs old) and I usually use their birthday as a starting point. Most of them love telling when their birthday is and in which year they were born. There are a lot of great sheets on the subject on the site. |

Hi Emanuel
I use the ATONIN Pyramid, which basically teaches prepositions to use for dates, months, years, etc... I demonstrate below,which I hope you find it useful Regards, Sagales.
The AT-ON-IN Time Pyramid
The ATONIN Time Pyramid can help people remember which preposition � at, on or in � to use with hours, days, months, years, etc.
An easy way to remember which preposition to use with hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades, ages.
Do you have a difficult time remembering which preposition to use with hours, days, months, years, etc?
Imagine a pyramid divided horizontally into 3 groups. |
