First, children began to notice colours through coloured glass panels
placed next to the windowsills. When the children looked through the coloured
glasses, they were amazed at what we discovered. Through the coloured glass
panels, the trees changed colours.
We then took the exploration further by using crystal blocks to play with
colours. For example, as we placed the primary colours red and blue together,
we discovered the combination of colours changed to purple.
Since we were all curious about the colours, we used paints to see if we
could achieve the same effect as the crystal blocks. We then experimented with
different colours of paint by mixing and blending colours.
We were still curious! Therefore, the children began with colour mixing for
some experimentation fun. Using the primary colours, we were able to mix
colours and see the results of the mixture.
We used eye droppers and glass bottles for our colour mixing.
The children were so careful with the glassware and took responsibility in
washing the glassware for friends who were waiting for a turn.
Exploring is exciting and fun!
Until next time,
Karen
