I vote for Sunday. If you want your students to use authentic resources (English calendar), the week should start on Sunday. Kids get used to using this type of calendar faster than some teachers might think.

Cheers,

Why does it have to be seasons?

Why can �t it be in the form of TIPS as in grammar tips/rules, writing tips, things you should know, British versus American English, spelling rules, pluralizations, punctuation rules etc.

Something that would be useful so people won �t want to throw it away when the year ends.

That �s a good point eng789. We downunder get frustrated when everything is depicted in northern hemisphere seasons. I think that tips along the lines you suggested is fabulous and far more useful to a wider number of members.

Great idea Barbara! Clap

Like Jayho, I many times feel discouraged by pictures of the months with the northern hemisphere seasons... Pinch

Especially when I see a snowy scene with the text january on it, when here in Argentina it �s boiling hot by that time of the year!!! LOL

Anyways, ...can �t wait to see the results of this great calendar!!!
Cheers!

What a great idea, Victor. I vote Sunday because it will include the starting of the school week in all countries

Well, after reading all this:
Wouldn �t it be possible to make calendars for northern, southern, western, eastern hemispheres? I believe people from Argentina (e.g) could feel frustrated seeing snow in December, as I would seeing it in August.
BTW Cyn., we are still waiting for snow in here Cry
