The Colour Tablet Box 3 from Montessori Sensorial area were introduced to the children today for our art activity. I demonstrated how we can grade different shades of colours from light to dark.
Then, each child had a turn to observe and to match the colour of the autumn leaves that were collected from outside. The children were encouraged to take their time to look at the colours carefully and to compare the different shades.
The children noticed that some leaves had more than one shade of colour that match. Look how carefully our little ones focused on finding and matching the colours!
We tried to used the paint to reproduce the leave colours we see. All the children were so eager to mixing and create the colour we see from the leaves. After the process of trail and error, the children and I found that it was pretty difficult to reproduce the same colour from Nature! We will keep explore about different shades of colour next week.
