Worksheet - Colour Pattern

Before we moved on to another colour, I wanted to see if the children could still remember the names of the colours. Therefore, I prepared a colour pattern worksheet for them to try it out.

This time, the children needs to read the name of the colours and tell me what should come next.

Sample of the exercise as followed:

red

green

green

red

green

green

Only a small group of children could tell me correctly. Some of them will tell me other colours from this group. When I read “red, green, green, red, green, green” and some of them will answer me “blue”, “orange” etc. I guess I have to do more oral practise on colour pattern.

Then we read through the lyrics for the “Rainbow Song” by Pamela Piersyn. The lyrics are as followed:

Chorus: I can name the colours in the rainbow

Red, Orange, Yellow and Green,

Blue, Indigo and Violet are seen.

Repeat Chorus

In the rainbow.

I can find the colours in the rainbow

Well, there’s a red stop sign at the end of my street,

My orange bicycle with the horn, beep, beep

Yellow butterfly landing on me

And green, green grass, under my feet

There’s a big, blue sky up above my head

Indigo’s the colour of my Daddy corvette

Violet flowers grow in Mama’s flower bed

These are the colours

There’s seven, yeah, in the rainbow

Repeat Chorus

I can name the colours in the rainbow

I can find the colours in the rainbow

I just love the colours in the rainbow!
