Using DATE functions could be one way.

Oracle provides LAST_DAY. For first day, calculate last day (of previous period) and add 1 to it.

Or you could use TRUNC(date,'WW') and trunc(date,'MM') to get the first day of the week/month.

And to be complete

First day of week - TRUNC(date,'WW')
Last day of week - TRUNC(date,'WW')+7
First day of month - trunc(date,'MM')
Last day of month - last_day(trunc(date))

If you are going to use them in a between then

First day of week - TRUNC(date,'WW')
Last day of week - TRUNC(date,'WW')+ 7 + (86399/86400)
First day of month - trunc(date,'MM')
Last day of month - last_day(trunc(date)) + + (86399/86400)
