Session Plan 90 Min
Intro Activity
Welcome & Introduction:
-
-
Greet the students with excitement and explain that today is all about colors!
-
Show them a few colorful flashcards, and say, “Look at these colors! Today, we’re going to learn about them and even use them to make our own art!
-
Color Flashcards Review:
-
Show flashcards with different colors and their corresponding objects (e.g., a red apple, a blue ocean, a yellow sun).
-
Pronounce each color slowly and clearly, and have the students repeat after you.
-
Encourage them to say the color and the object it is associated with (e.g., “Green like grass!” “Yellow like the sun!”).
Main Topic/ Activity
Color Introduction and Pronunciation Practice (15-20 Minutes):
-
Introduce 6-8 colors to the students (green, blue, yellow, red, black, white, pink, orange).
-
As you show the color, ask the children to repeat the color's name after you.
-
Practice the correct pronunciation of each color. For example:
-
Green – "Say green. Green like the grass!"
-
Blue – "Say blue. Blue like the sky!"
-
Yellow – "Say yellow. Yellow like the sun!"
-
Black – "Say black. Black like the night!"
-
White – "Say white. White like snow!"
-
Encourage them to say the color loudly and proudly after you.
2. Color Writing and Drawing (25-30 Minutes):
-
Activity Setup:
-
Hand out A4 sheets of paper and crayons/markers to each student.
-
Tell them, "Now, let's have some fun! Write your favorite color on your paper and then color a picture using that color!"
-
For example, they could write green and then color a tree or a leaf. They could write yellow and color the sun.
-
As they are drawing, walk around and encourage them to say the color they are using (e.g., “I am using yellow!” or “This is red!”).
3. Color Sharing and Speaking Practice (15-20 Minutes):
-
After everyone has finished their drawings, invite the children to share their artwork with the class.
-
As they share, ask them to name the colors they used:
-
“What color did you use for the sky?”
-
“Can you say what color the flower is?”
-
This practice will help reinforce color recognition and pronunciation.
Wrap-Up Activity (10-15 Minutes):
Cool-Down Reflection:
-
Sit in a circle and ask the children what their favorite color is and why.
-
“What color do you like the most?”
-
“Can you tell us something that is that color?”
-
For example, if someone says “red,” they might say “red like an apple.”
Goodbye Color Song (5-10 Minutes):
-
Sing a simple goodbye song incorporating the colors they’ve learned. For example:
-
“Red, yellow, green, and blue, Colors all around for you! Black, white, pink, and orange too, We love colors, how about you?”
-
This will help them wrap up the session with fun and a little recap of the colors.
