By now you already know the 12 months of the year: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November and December.
These 12 months make 1 year.
Some months have 30 days and some have 31 days. February is the only month which has 28 days.
Months that have 30 days are: September, April, June and November
Months that have 31 days are: October, December, January, March, May, July and August
Months that have 28 days are: February
Here’s a rhyme to help you remember:
Thirty days has September,
April, June, and November.
All the rest have thirty-one,
Except for February alone,
Which has twenty-eight days clear,
And twenty-nine in each leap year.
A leap year happens around every 4 years. This means that every 4 years, February has 1 extra day.
If we add up all the days in each month that makes 365 days in a year.
When it's a leap year, it adds up to 366 days.
So we know how many months and days there are in a year, what about weeks?
1 week is made up of 7 days. If we divide 365 days of the year into 7 days we will know how many weeks we have in a year.
365 divided by 7 = 52 weeks in a year.
Let’s go over that quickly:
1 year is made up of 12 months = 365 days = 52 weeks
