Let's Work with Secondary Colors

Green, Orange and Purple

Since we are done with our Primary Colors lesson - http://joneepslimwitch.blogspot.com/2013/02/working-with-red-yellow-blue-introduce.html, let's start working with Secondary Colors.

Introducing red, yellow and blue are already difficult for the children. Therefore, let's be aware that if they are having difficulty in the primary colors, they may have the same level of stress if we force the secondary colors.

However, there are two ways to introduce secondary colors to the little kids; one is be creative and two is be fun!

That's right! Coloring should be a fun way for the angels, less stress and more happy experiences.

To begin with, let's review. We have red, yellow and blue for primary colors. For us to make the secondary colors, we must always remember our primary colors.

Secondary color means the combination of some primary colors in order to produce another color.

There are several ways for the kids to have fun during color introduction day. Just make sure they will do it by themselves because this is one technique for them to easily remember something - RLE or Related Learning Experience.
