Purple…purple…

This week we shall focus on “purple” colour. I got the children to brainstorm of things in purple.

Teacher: Can you name me anything which is purple in colour?

Children: Grapes…T-shirt….car…. (Suddenly, there’s silence from the floor. So I had to carry on with the list)

Teacher: Plum….prunes….eggplant / brinjal/ aubergine….dragon fruit.

The children were thrilled to know there are so many things in purple.

Then we sang a purple song adapted from online.

Song: We Love Purple (Tune: Frere Jacques)

We love purple, we love purple.

Yes, we do. Yes, we do.

Purple grapes and eggplant.

Purple plums and grape juice,

Just for me, just for you.
