Color Documentation

Over the last couple of weeks we have been documenting some of the colors that we have been studying.  We have been using the clear disc that comes on top of a pack of CD's or DVD's as a template.  While looking at different shades of colors, students have been using their fine motor skills to peal the back of the colored stickers.  We have completed several color discs, but continue to work on many more.  I will be sure to post a photo of how we have documented and displayed the completed disc's in our classroom.  Here are a few photos to show the students in action!
 

We also mixed the colors blue and red - although our red looks a little more pink.  We used icing that was colored by food coloring and pretzels for mixing.    

We documented our discoveries in our Exploration Lab Journals.  Students continue to focus on labeling their illustrations and writing simple sentences.

Lastly, to celebrate the completion reading Charlott's Web aloud, we watched the movie.  Students enjoyed talking about similarities and differences between the book and movie.

Have a fantastic week!
