Ducklings: Friendship Color Mixing


We had Circle Time in the Gym. We introduced two new jolly phonics sounds “W” and “X”. We counted who was present with the Ducklings Family Tree by putting apples flashcards on the tree with the children’s pictures. Later on, we introduced the meaning of “Friends”, who we love to spend time with, to help as well as to cooperate with. Then we had an art activity called “Friendship color mixing”: every two children made a pair and chose a color to paint their hand with. They mixed the color with their friend’s color on the hand to create a new one. Finally they used the new color to create hand prints on a big piece of white paper. All the children had a lot of fun while playing and helping each other as well as learning about the color theory.
