This project teaches children about basic colour theory by studying the colour wheel and colour mixing. It includes an exploration of primary and secondary colours and how artists use colour in their artwork.
This project can be taught at the start of the school year, with sessions being revisited throughout the year as necessary to reinforce an understanding of colour and colour mixing.
