Color

Until we studied color last week, I had forgotten how fascinating colors are.  The boys made color wheels, mixing their own secondary colors.  They loved mixing a little more blue or a little more yellow until they got the exact green they wanted.  My lesson plans also included introducing pastels, but we did not get to do that.  Dan said, "That's ok, we're a bold color family anyway."  Haha!  We will fit in pastels this week. 



Color wheels



Celophane in primary colors clung to the doors.  The boys enjoyed combining two blues and one yellow, or two yellows and one red to make varying shades of secondaries.  Then they looked through their colors at the blue (or whatever color!) world outside.
