The Savvy Quiz for your-child
Orientation in Time and Space:

Hide/Show Overview

Remember when our babies didn't know the difference between night and day, and the only place they clamored to go was to mommy or daddy's arms? Now it's "Where are we going today?" or "Two more minutes at the playground, please!" They've come such a long way, and yet...their conception of "two minutes" is still a bit fuzzy (in our experience, it usually means at least twenty). As their little worlds expand ever further beyond the here and now, and their schedules become more complex, let's help our kids grasp where they've been, where they are going, and what time it is right now - time to go!

My child understands and uses the language of time (e.g., day/night, today/tomorrow, etc.).


    Not yet Sometimes Consistently Don't know

    My child demonstrates an awareness of the passage of time and of periods of time, as the past, present, and future (e.g., organize photos representing timeline of childā??s own life; identify photos of different time periods (medieval times, pioneers) as the past).


      Not yet Sometimes or past and present, but not future Consistently Don't know

      My child can sequence events as before and after and first-next-last.


        Not yet Sometimes or 2-3 events Three or more events consistently Don't know

        My child can compare duration of events (e.g., which takes more or less time).


          Not yet Sometimes Consistently Don't know

          My child knows the days of the week and months of the year.


            Not yet Some of them All of them Don't know

            My child can differentiate between today, yesterday, tomorrow, this morning, yesterday morning, last night, etc.
