Have you ever wondered why Saturday and Sunday always show up right after your school days?
It is all because of a special loop of time called a week, which always has exactly seven days.

What are the names of all seven days, and how do we say them in order?
The Seven Days in Order
In the United States, most calendars start the week on Sunday.
When we start with Sunday, the seven days in order are Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

The five days from Monday to Friday are called weekdays when kids go to school, while Saturday and Sunday make up the weekend.
What happens if a calendar starts on your very first day of school instead?
Starting with Monday
Some school planners start with Monday because Monday is the start of the school workweek.
When you start on Monday, the order stays the same, but the week ends on Sunday: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
