Free August Calendar Worksheet

This series of monthly calendar worksheets focus on understanding the time relationship of days within the week, the month, and within the year.

Students are provided with a generic monthly calendar at the top of the worksheet, and then provided with questions pertaining to the calendar.

The calendars are intentionally not dated so you can use these worksheets year after year.

While they can certainly be used with any age or stage as you see appropriate, I created them for 2nd and 3rd graders.

This worksheet includes an answer sheet for easy grading.

Ideas for Using the August Calendar Worksheet

Encourage your child to write out the full day of the week or month of the year to practice spelling and capitalization. It is certainly a great opportunity to talk about day and month abbreviations, so do not miss that chance!

Math Learning Ideas

For example, teach that the date of August 17, 2025 can be written at least two different ways:

• August 17, 2025
• 08-17-2025

Then take some time to practice!

Make sure to include that the usual abbreviation for August is Aug.

You could encourage looking for patterns with skip counting by 7s as you count from week to week.

Phonics Learning Ideas

Of course you can always incorporate a phonics lesson with the name of ‘August’ or any of the days of the week.

• Take note of the AU vowel team that makes the /ô/ sound in August. Review that the vowel team usually comes at the beginning or middle of a word and never at the end of a word, since English words do not end in i, u, v, or j. Brainstorm other words with the vowel team sound of AU.
  For example: pause, sauce, Paul, fault
• August ends with the consonant blend ST. Brainstorm a few words that begin with /st/ and then a few words that end with the /st/ sound. Say several words aloud and have your child tell you whether the words ends or begins with the /st/ sounds.
  For example: stop (beginning), stay (beginning), stone (beginning), pest (end), trust (end)
• Determine which days of the week have short vowel sounds.
• Count the number of syllables in each day of the week.
• Mention the vowel team AY and point it out in each day of the week.

Look for every opportunity with your young ones to add to their frames of reference and reinforce skills that need extra attention.
