Exploring Color Mixing

1/4/2016

Kindergarten students have been introduced to the technique of color mixing. To begin we created some color magic by mixing together colored water of the primary colors. Before we poured the water we guessed which secondary color would be created by the 2 primary colors. After this we set up our papers into 8 even squares. In each square we mixed together our own secondary colors and brown.

After our paint dried, we drew ice cream scoop shapes on each square and a cone in the brown rectangle. After drawing, we cut and pasted these items together to make a 6 scoop ice cream cone! We pasted our cones on a piece of colored construction paper of the students choice and decorated around the ice cream cones with oil pastels.

Learning objectives: color theory, techniques in painting, collage

ART WORDS:
Primary colors: red, yellow, blue 
Secondary colors: purple, green, orange
