The children have been exploring the colour wheel and discussing their favourite colours and designing their own wheel with various materials.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Today we explored the colour wheel and began to talk about the various colours and if anyone could identify the three primary colours. A couple of the children were able to name these
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

.\u201d<\/span>Blue, Red & yellow\u201d<\/p>\n

We listened to a story called Mouse Hunt which told us a story about the primary colours and what happens if we mixed certain colours together and what colours they become. \u00a0The colours that they are called secondary colours.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We talked about the story and I asked who could identify the primary colours now. Then as a group we took turns to mix the colours, we made predictions on which colour it would create.
\n\u201cBlue\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201dyellow mouse\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201dRed mouse\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The children then gathered their own \u00a0resources \u00a0and began to explore and experiment with the \u00a0primary colours. They used \u00a0their fine motors skills to mix the primary colours of their choice \u00a0together and create the secondary colours. Some of the children chose to do this in their pallets and others chose to mix them on their paper.<\/p>\n

Red and blue is purple<\/span><\/p>\n

I am going to make orange, I need yellow and red<\/span><\/p>\n

Blue and \u00a0yellow<\/span><\/p>\n

The children continued to experiment with the colours and were able to paint a piece of art work using them.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201d I made the mouse\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201dmine is beautiful colours, I made\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c I made this orange myself\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201d I made a Christmas tree with my colours\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201dmine is light green\u201d<\/p>\n
