Who this is for
Prep or Year 1 with adult calendar reading. Count three planned days and make a small reminder. Check the local school calendar before using it.
Where the example applies

What is being counted
Count of planned weekdays in the first calendar week; not annual school days or actual child attendance.
The public fact
Queensland publishes Wednesday 27 January 2027 as the Term 1 start for state-school students.
Checked working
Wednesday 27, Thursday 28 and Friday 29 January: 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 planned weekdays. Confirm the school’s actual arrangements before using this reminder.
The planning model and invented practice
Three boxes represent three planned days. This is a planning example, not a child attendance record. The two-day practice reminder is invented.
What still needs checking
This does not confirm a particular school’s changed dates, local closures, private-school calendar or a child’s attendance. Recheck the current source and school calendar.

A short teaching route
First model an invented two-day reminder: draw two boxes and count each once. Then read the three actual planned weekday names aloud. Ask the learner to make one space for each day, show how many spaces there are, and tell or show how they checked. Keep their first response before helping.
Adult example response
Three spaces, one each for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Touch-counting or matching one marker to each named day supports the check. Calendar reading may be adult-supported; record any counting help separately.
Other ways to join
Make: place three large paper cards or spoons on a mat. Draw: make one box per day. Tell or point: choose each named day as an adult reads it. Keep the day order visible; offer quiet one-to-one work and usual AAC or exact scribing. Stop after a short try.
