Spanish Days of the Week

This page may contain affiliate links. See our disclosure policy.

The most recent addition to the Education Cubes Members Only Site are the Spanish Days of the Week insert cards! Two versions are included; one with and one without the definite articles.

Learning Idea: Insert days Monday through Saturday (or any six days) into one cube. Grab a monthly calendar and some counters. Roll the cube and place a counter on each day of the week rolled. Continue rolling until the calendar (minus the one day not added to the cube) is filled with counters. This is a fun way to use your Education Cubes to practice Spanish vocabulary for the days of the week!
