What children will practise
Practises using the colour wheel to explain how colours relate: tertiaries come from a primary plus a secondary, harmonious colours sit close together, complementary colours make a picture stand out, and graded values give depth. Fits indicator ศ 1.1 ป.3/1.
What's in the worksheet
6 questions, 3 options each - What is a colour wheel? (a diagram ordering colours by how they are mixed) - How are tertiary colours made? (primary plus secondary) - What are harmonious colours? (colours close together on the wheel) - What does grading colour value do? (gives depth and distance)
How to use it in class
Play at the end of a lesson where children have just painted their own 12-part colour wheel, about 6 minutes, solo, with their wheel open in front of them to point to answers. If many mix up harmonious and complementary colours, paint the same picture both ways next lesson and compare. Play it linked to the class and the scores go into the gradebook.
Common sticking points
- Harmonious versus complementary: swapping "close together" and "opposite" is the most common slip in this set. Hook: harmonious are neighbours, complementary face each other. - Tertiary: the distractor "mix two primaries" is the definition of secondary, so children who blur the two pick it. - Colour value: some pick "how many colours are used", reading "weight" as quantity.
