Days of the Week Flower Garden Worksheet is a bright and engaging activity designed to help early learners practise sequencing the days of the week through a hands-on cut and paste task. Featuring a garden-themed design, this resource helps students build word recognition, understand the cyclical nature of the calendar, and develop fine motor skills in a playful and purposeful way.

Students cut out the seven day-of-the-week circles and glue them in the correct order onto the centre of each flower head. As they work, they develop their understanding of the weekly sequence while engaging in visual matching and strengthening their hand-eye coordination. The task also offers opportunities to discuss routines, use positional language, and explore calendar-based vocabulary in context.

In addition to literacy outcomes, this task also supports early numeracy through patterning and order. The flower format provides a visually appealing structure for sequencing, and once the task is completed, students can colour their flower garden—offering an extra opportunity for creative expression. This visual and tactile experience is ideal for reinforcing key vocabulary and building a sense of routine in the classroom environment.
