Learning the days of the week is essential for any language learner. From booking an appointment to making a hotel reservation, knowing how to say the days of the week is a vital part of everyday speaking.
This randomized game provides a clue about the word you need to spell. However for each letter you get wrong, the monkey watching you play is getting closer to getting squashed. You may find yourself intentionally getting the spelling wrong just to see him get squashed.
The weekdays are the five working days, which are Monday to Friday and so the weekend for most countries is Saturday and Sunday. However, in some countries like Israel, due to their religious holidays, the weekday actually starts on Sunday and finishes on Thursday.

After starting many new jobs throughout my career (maybe ten or more), it's very clear to me that the most important thing to do your first 90 days is to buckle up, strap yourself in, and take the time to learn.
There is always a tendency to jump into a new job and immediately start doing things - take charge, volunteer for projects, and get things done. While all this is important, it pales in comparison with the importance of taking time to slow down and use this important time to learn.
There are many things to learn in a new job. You need to know the people, how the job works, how the company does business, and a myriad of business processes and practices around you. These take time to absorb, and if you skip this important period and jump into work too fast you may create more damage than good.
Here's an example. When we were acquired by Deloitte in late 2012, we went through a very accelerated learning process. I had to learn how to work in the new company, who to align with, how to get things done, and how to manage all the administrative details (how to get paid, file expenses, book travel, and much more). Initially I was impatient to get through all this "learning," but now, two years later, I realize that many of my initial efforts were wasted. People told me it would take two years to "figure out Deloitte" and they were right.
You have to slow down. When you start a new job you're nervous about making a good impression. You want to drive impact, and prove that you're a high performer. So how do you take this time to slow down and learn when you feel such pressure to succeed?
I've had the opportunity to jump into several companies at an executive or senior level, and even then this advice works. Most of the big decisions you make during your first few months are likely to be wrong, because you really don't know how everything works yet.
Remember that sometimes you have to go slow in order to go fast. The more you learn early, the better decisions you'll make and the more productive you'll be later. 90 days goes by fast. Use the time carefully and you'll be glad you did.

Big Red Teaching Days is a week-long program that provides faculty a collegial opportunity to informally observe and learn about how their peers approach teaching and learning across a range of courses and learning environments.
I really need to learn professional javascript in two days because I am gonna have to hit theground running (real world project). I have little which can be approximated to no knowledge of JavaScript or website development. Any help would be appreciated greatly.
Seriously, two days is about enough to get a feel for the basics. It's nowhere near enough time to get to "professional" level (whatever that means exactly). The more experience you have with other languages, the easier it will be, though.
If you need to learn JavaScript, you can follow these courses if you have little previous programming experience. They are interactive and you can code all the examples in the explorer (and they are free).
Every child in our household over the age of 2 has made a Creation Book. These are very simple to put together because the only skills you need are the ability to tear paper and slap on glue!
Whenever I tell the creation story to Christopher I have to think about a song that my sister taught her Cubbies (the Awana program for 3 &4 year olds). By remembering the rhyming words (one- light when there were NONE) I remember what was created each day. I might have to learn the finger play and start showing Christopher. Pathetic? Maybe. Works? Yes.
I love this! The book looks like such a fun, easy craft and the fingerplay to go along with it will be so helpful. Because, honestly, I STILL have trouble remembering the order of creation! Thanks for sharing!
What should teachers do on the days after major events, tragedies, and traumas, especially when injustice is involved? This beautifully written book features teacher narratives and youth-authored student spotlights that reveal what classrooms do and can look like in the wake of these critical moments. Dunn incisively argues for the importance of equitable commitments, humanizing dialogue, sociopolitical awareness, and a rejection of so-called pedagogical neutrality across all grade levels and content areas. By highlighting the voices of teachers who are pushing beyond their concerns and fears about teaching for equity and justice, readers see how these educators address negative reactions from parents and administrators, welcome all student viewpoints, and negotiate their own feelings. These inspiring stories come from diverse areas such as urban New York, rural Georgia, and suburban Michigan, from both public and private schools, and from classrooms with both novice and veteran teachers. Teaching on Days After can be used to support current classroom teachers and to better structure teacher education to help preservice teachers think ahead to their future classrooms.
Alyssa Hadley Dunn is an associate professor in the Department of Teacher Education at Michigan State University, and author of Teachers Without Borders? The Hidden Consequences of International Teachers in U.S. Schools.

they all do stuff at different rates, remember that
my eldest ds was slightly later with learning his days of the week but knew all kinds of stuff that ds2 and dd who knew days etc earlier, didn't. Developing different skills at different rates is fine. Another one - my boys just did not do writing early, ds2 read at just 4 but no sign of bothering with writing anything. DD at 3 wants to write her own name and all kinds of stylised fancy "letters" (unfortunately not all of them English lol, several appear to be nearer Greek) despite me having in many ways much less time to do concentrated stuff with her.
