Step-by-step solution for: Days of the week & Months of the year worksheet
Let's solve the puzzle step by step.
The task is to fill in the missing letters for each month of the year. The words are partially written, and we need to complete them based on the correct spelling of the months.
Here are the clues and hints from the image:
- On the left side: icons representing events or themes associated with certain months.
- On the right side: more thematic icons (like a sombrero, Valentine’s heart, classroom, etc.), which also hint at specific months.
Let’s go through each one:
---
1. Jan_ar_
→ January
Missing letters: u, y
✔ January
2. F_b_uary
→ February
Missing letters: e, r
✔ February
3. Marc_
→ March
Missing letter: h
✔ March
4. A_ril
→ April
Missing letter: p
✔ April
5. M_y
→ May
Missing letter: a
✔ May
6. Ju_e
→ June
Missing letter: n
✔ June
7. J_ly
→ July
Missing letter: u
✔ July
8. A_gu_t
→ August
Missing letters: u, s
✔ August
9. S_pte_ber
→ September
Missing letters: e, m, b
Wait — only two blanks: S__pte__ber → So it should be e and m? But that doesn't fit. Let's check:
- S _ p t e _ b e r → Actually, it's September, so missing: e and m? No — wait:
S _ p t e _ b e r → The second blank is after "te", so:
S _ p t e _ b e r → It's September, so the missing letters are: e and m? That would make September — yes!
But there are only two blanks: first blank after S, second after te.
So:
S _ p t e _ b e r → September → missing: e and m
✔ September
10. O_to_er
→ October
Missing letters: c, b
October → Yes!
✔ October
11. N_ve_ber
→ November
Missing letters: o, m
November → Yes!
✔ November
12. De_embe_
→ December
Missing letters: c, r
December → Yes!
✔ December
---
Now, let’s double-check with the icons:
1. Calendar with 1 JAN → January ✔
2. HALLOWEEN → October ✔ (Halloween is in October)
3. Earth → Earth Day is in April ✔ (April)
4. Mother holding kids → Mother’s Day is in May ✔ (May)
5. Jester hat → April Fools’ Day is in April ✔ (April) – but we already have April as #4. Hmm… maybe this is a bit off? Wait — Jester is often linked to April Fools' Day → April ✔
6. Snowflake → Winter, December ❄️ → December ✔
Wait — there’s a mismatch here?
Let’s list all icons and match them to months:
#### Left Side:
1. Calendar (Jan) → January ✔
2. HALLOWEEN → October ✔
3. Earth → Earth Day (April 22) → April ✔
4. Mom with kids → Mother’s Day (May) → May ✔
5. Jester → April Fools’ Day → April ✔
6. Snowflake → Winter → December ✔
But now we see April appears twice (Earth and Jester), and October appears once.
Wait — actually, the icons might not be directly paired with the month order. They’re just visual cues for some months.
But let’s look at the right-side icons:
1. Sombrero → Cinco de Mayo → May? Or Mexican culture → Could be May or even other months? But Cinco de Mayo is May 5 → May ✔
2. Heart in envelope → Valentine’s Day → February ✔
3. Classroom → Back to school → September ✔
4. Couple hugging → Maybe love, but could be Valentine’s? Or baby? Wait — this might be for Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day? But earlier we had Mother’s Day with mom and kids. This couple might be for Valentine’s Day again?
5. Sombrero + mustache → Fiesta? Possibly May (Cinco de Mayo)? Or September (Mexican Independence Day)? Wait — Mexican Independence Day is September 16 → September ✔
6. Tulips → Spring → March or April? But tulips bloom in spring — often April/May. But March has St. Patrick’s Day, April has Easter, May has flowers.
Wait — let’s map the icons properly.
Actually, looking at the layout:
There are 12 months, and 12 icons — 6 on left, 6 on right.
So likely, each icon corresponds to a month.
Let’s try to pair them:
| Month | Icon (Left) | Icon (Right) |
|-------|-------------|--------------|
| Jan | Calendar (Jan) | Sombrero (Mexico?) → Not clear |
| Feb | Halloween | Heart (Valentine’s) → Feb |
| Mar | Earth | Classroom (Back to school?) → Sept? |
| Apr | Mother & kids | Couple hugging? |
| May | Jester (April Fools) | ??? |
| Jun | Snowflake | Tulips |
Wait — this seems messy.
Alternatively, perhaps the icons are clues for the months, not necessarily matching order.
Let’s re-express:
1. Calendar with 1 JAN → January ✔
2. HALLOWEEN → October ✔
3. Earth → Earth Day → April ✔
4. Mother with children → Mother’s Day → May ✔
5. Jester hat → April Fools’ Day → April ✔
6. Snowflake → Winter → December ✔
So left side gives us:
- January (Jan)
- October (Halloween)
- April (Earth Day)
- May (Mother’s Day)
- April (again?)
- December (snow)
Wait — April appears twice (Earth and Jester). But we can’t have two Aprils.
But notice: the jester is April Fools’ Day, which is April 1 → April ✔
Earth Day is April 22 → April ✔
So both point to April.
But we only have one “April” in the list.
So maybe the icons are not in order? Or they're just thematic hints, not one-to-one.
Similarly, right-side icons:
1. Sombrero with decorations → Likely Cinco de Mayo → May ✔
2. Heart in envelope → Valentine’s Day → February ✔
3. Classroom → School starts → September ✔
4. Couple hugging → Love → Valentine’s Day → February? Or Mother’s Day? But Mother’s Day is already covered.
5. Sombrero + mustache → Mexican Independence Day → September 16 → September ✔
6. Tulips → Spring → March or April? But tulips bloom in spring, and March is early spring. However, March is often associated with St. Patrick’s Day (green), but no green icon.
Wait — tulips are commonly associated with March (early spring) or April (late spring). But March is also when many flowers start blooming.
But let’s think: Tulips are often linked to spring, and March is a common month for tulips in many regions.
But also, April is spring.
However, note that March has St. Patrick’s Day, but no green icon.
But February has Valentine’s Day → red heart → matches the heart in envelope.
So:
- Right-side icons:
1. Sombrero (Cinco de Mayo) → May
2. Heart → February
3. Classroom → September (back to school)
4. Couple hugging → possibly Valentine’s Day → February again? Or Mother’s Day → May
5. Sombrero + mustache → Mexican Independence Day → September
6. Tulips → March or April
But we have:
- Two sombreros: one with decorations (May), one with mustache (September) → so different months
- Two hearts? Only one heart icon
- One classroom → September
- One couple → maybe Mother’s Day → May
- One snowflake → December
- One Earth → April
- One Halloween → October
- One calendar → January
- One jester → April
So perhaps the icons are not strictly one per month, but serve as general clues.
But since the main task is to fill in the missing letters, and we already solved that, let’s focus on the word completion.
