Dates and Positional Numbers

This English and Literacy quiz looks at writing dates and positional numbers. This quiz will help KS1 children learn how to write the date correctly. It also informs them when to write ‘st’, ‘nd’ 'th' and ‘rd’ after a number. This is something that will arise in their everyday writing, as they’ll need to date their work. This quiz is ideally for Year 1 pupils or can be used as revision for Year 2. It will aid in their development of literacy and English.

When we write the date or say the position of something, we don’t say one, two or three. Instead we say first, second, third. We also show this using ‘st’, ‘nd’ and ‘rd’. See how much you know on positional language.
