For Grades K – 2 Learning Outcomes: Students will: Learn about color and texture Learn how to represent objects through color Teacher planning: Time required: 30 – 45 minutes Materials/resources: Paper, Markers/colored pencils/paint, Textured materials – bark, rug, flower petals, different textiles, animal skin, stone, etc. Have the students look around the classroom. What are some textures found in your classroom? Begin by talking to the students about the way certain objects feel. Small examples of marble, a painter's palette, etc. can be circulated around the class before you ask the following: How does marble (sculpture) feel? How might the surface of a painting feel? Have the students describe how natural objects like leaves, snow, rain, grass, flowers, dog/cat fur, dirt, a feather, a stone, the sun, might feel? Activity: Each student will represent an object through color alone. Have the students create a drawing or painting with the idea that a color represents a feeling or object. For example, a student might choose to color their paper red to represent the sun. Along with this activity, each student can make a color key and explain their reasons for choosing selected colors. Before they share the key, have the class try to guess what object each color is representing. Assessment: Students may be evaluated on understanding, implementation and participation of the color and texture activity.
