Our Colour Palette Wall is Growing

This past Tuesday, we began reading a short, non-fiction book entitled The Colours of Fall. Each day we read a different, two-page section devoted to a specific colour. At the end of each reading, students were challenged to seek out items in our classroom that matched that colour and lay them atop a piece of matching construction paper which had been strategically placed on one of the shelves. At the end of the day, the objects 'magically' were attached to the paper and hung on one of our whiteboards for the children to discover the next morning. Over the next several days, the challenge will continue as new colours will be introduced through the text.
