Days of the Week Cut and Paste Worksheet for Preschoolers

Cutting out the seven day names and gluing them into the correct sequence teaches children ages 4-6 the fixed order of the days of the week, a foundational piece of time-concept knowledge they'll rely on for calendars, schedules, and daily routines. Because this activity requires both reading the day names and remembering their correct order, it strengthens sight-word recognition alongside sequencing skills. The hands-on cutting and pasting also gives fine motor practice within a literacy and time-concept task.

How to use this worksheet

Have your child cut out each day-of-the-week card along the dotted lines, keeping them loose in front of them. Say the days of the week together in order, from Sunday or Monday through to the end, so your child hears the correct sequence before placing the cards. Ask your child to find the card for the first day and glue it into the first box, continuing through the remaining days one at a time, checking each one against the spoken order. Once all seven boxes are filled, read the completed sequence aloud together to confirm it's correct.
