Colours 2: It is time to make magic!!!!!

Once the children learn the three primary colours, the children are ready to make magic. Making magic means mixing colors to make different colours.

Before mixing the children used balloons to paint with. Look at their works of art.










It is now time to make magic. Many of the children did not know they had this magical power.

Some of us felt "magical" all day.
Some of us could not believe that we could make magic.



 Making magic made some of us smile from ear to ear.

This term we are learning about colours.

This term is all about colour. Not only do the children learn about different colours, but they also have fun with the colours they are learning about.
The first colour we learnt about was red.

 They used red thread to thread.


 The children came to school in their best red outfits.

Strawberry jam on toast. Yummy!!!!!!


 The children did many activities based on the story of Little Red Riding Hood.
 For lunch we had red juice and red jelly. Miguel (alias: Pepe), also wanted to try some of the red juice that the children made.
The following week, we learnt about yellow.





 Although some of us are not fans of fruit, we tried banana custard. It was yummy!!!!!! So, we do like fruit, we just don´t know it yet.





 We threaded yellow bananas and submarines as well.




The next colour we learnt about was blue.





In small groups, the children made story boards, putting all the events in the story into the correct order.
 Some of us made blue biscuits, croquettes, sandwiches or shapes with blue plasticine.
In our write dance session, the children could dance and have fun with their blue balloons.


 Here we go up, up, up.....

 Here we go down, down, down,.....


 Here we go side to side, side to side, .......
 and STOP!

On Friday, we came to school in our best blue outfits.



 Some of our blue outfits looked like costumes!!!!!
We made lovely blue frosting to put on biscuits. They were delicious!!!!














  
We used blue scraps of paper to make collages. 

 The children got to use blue plasticine again, but this time with glitter.
