Think: How is a calendar related to the succession of day and night?

Reflect: What do we use calendars for?

There are two main calendars used for indicating dates: a lunar calendar and a solar calendar. A lunar calendar is a calendar based on the monthly cycles of the Moon’s phases, whereas a solar calendar is based on the solar year, the time it takes the Earth to revolve once around the Sun. A solar year is about 365.25 days long, while a lunar month is about 29.53 days long.

Origins of the months’ names

January: Named for the Roman god Janus, protector of gates and doorways.

February: From the Latin word februa, “to cleanse.”

March: Named for the Roman god of war, Mars.

April: From the Latin word aperio, “to open (bud),” because plants begin to grow in this month.

May: From the Latin word maiores, “elders,” who were celebrated during this month.

June: From the Latin word juvenis, “young people.”

July: Named to honor Roman dictator Julius Caesar.

August: Named to honor the first Roman emperor Augustus Caesar.

September: From the Latin word septem, meaning “seven,” because it was the seventh month of the early Roman calendar.

October: Its name comes from octo, the Latin word for “eight.”

November: From the Latin word novem, “nine”

December: From the Latin word decem, “ten,”
