Plan one additional language lesson for grade 1 learners for the topic of Colours

Answer 1

Title: Mixing Colours

Objective: To introduce students to the concept of mixing colours to create new colours

Materials Needed:
- Primary colours (red, blue, yellow)
- White paper
- Paint brushes
- Water cups
- Colour mixing palette

Lesson Plan:

1. Begin the lesson by reviewing the primary colours (red, blue, yellow) with the students. Ask them to identify objects of each colour in the classroom.

2. Explain to the students that by mixing primary colours together, they can create new colours. Show them a colour mixing palette and demonstrate how to mix two primary colours to create a secondary colour. For example, mixing red and yellow creates orange.

3. Have the students practice mixing colours on their own by giving each student a white piece of paper, paint brushes, and water cups. Allow them to experiment with mixing primary colours to create new colours. Encourage them to make observations and record their findings.

4. Once the students have had time to practice mixing colours, gather them together to discuss their discoveries. Ask them to share what they learned about mixing colours and any new colours they were able to create.

5. For a fun activity, have the students work together to create a collaborative artwork using the colours they mixed. This can be displayed in the classroom to show off their new colour creations.

6. Conclude the lesson by reviewing the primary and secondary colours with the students. Encourage them to continue experimenting with mixing colours at home and to pay attention to the different colours they see in the world around them.

Extension: For a more challenging activity, have the students try to create tertiary colours by mixing a primary colour with a secondary colour. This will reinforce their understanding of colour mixing and allow them to explore even more colour combinations.
