Objective: Students will be able to mix primary colors to create secondary colors, and identify the new colors they have created.
Materials Needed: Red, yellow, and blue paint, paintbrushes, white paper, paper plates or paint palettes, water cups, paper towels
Introduction (10 minutes):
1. Begin the lesson by reviewing the primary colors (red, yellow, blue) and explaining that these colors can be mixed together to create new colors.
2. Show the students examples of secondary colors (orange, green, purple) and ask them if they know how these colors are made.
3. Explain that today they will be experimenting with mixing colors to create their own secondary colors.
Activity (30 minutes):
1. Divide the class into small groups and provide each group with paper plates or paint palettes, red, yellow, and blue paint, paintbrushes, water cups, and paper towels.
2. Instruct the students to first paint a primary color on their paper, and then mix two primary colors together to create a secondary color.
3. Encourage the students to experiment with different ratios of paint to see how it affects the color they create.
4. Circulate around the room to offer guidance and help as needed.
Closing (10 minutes):
1. Bring the class back together and ask each group to share the secondary colors they have created.
2. Discuss as a group how mixing colors can create new colors and ask the students to identify the secondary colors they have made.
3. Review the primary and secondary colors as a whole class.
Assessment: Informally assess the students' understanding by observing their color mixing during the activity and listening to their reflections during the closing discussion. Additionally, provide feedback on their ability to identify and articulate the new colors they have created.
