6. Color the numbers on the calendar. Color weekends blue and weekdays yellow.
This is a coloring task — not something we can do here, but let’s explain what to do:
- Weekends = Saturday (“S”) and Sunday (“S”) columns → color those dates
blue
- Weekdays = Monday through Friday (“M”, “T”, “W”, “T”, “F”) → color those dates
yellow
For example:
- January 1 (Monday) → yellow
- January 2 (Tuesday) → yellow
- ...
- January 7 (Saturday) → blue
- January 8 (Sunday) → blue
- And so on...
You’ll color all the numbers in the S and S columns blue, and the rest yellow.
