New Colour - Black

We had a short period for brainstorming session on black. Then we did a worksheet on black according to the nursery rhyme - Baa, Baa, Black Sheep. The children needed to fill in the the word "black" in the blanks of the nursery rhymes.

Then the children colour the sheep in black so that they understand the link of the colour and its name.

I also prepared a quarter of the drawing paper for each child. Then I demonstrated by using varieties of crayons colours to colour on the drawing paper. Then on top of the colourful colours, I painted it with black crayons. The black crayons must covered all the colourful colours. Then I used the long toothpicks to draw pictures on it. The children were amazed to know that colours will appear from the black crayons layer.

With the demonstration done, the children quickly picked up those colourful crayons and started drawing on their drawing paper. After they had covered it with the black crayons, they were so eager to start off with their pictures.
