Teacher demonstrates mixing of colors.

Objective: To show the children how two or more colors mixed together can create another color.

Activity: Teacher shows the children how to mix two or more colors to create a new color. Materials needed: three large jars; water; red, blue, and yellow food coloring; large spoons or sticks for stirring.
1. Fill the jars with water. Put a few drops of yellow food coloring in the first jar. Take your time doing this. Students will enjoy the swirl design the food coloring makes as it mixes with the water.
2. Add red food coloring to the yellow water a few drops at a time until the water is colored orange.
3. Repeat the steps above mixing red and blue food coloring to make purple, and yellow blue coloring to make green.
4. If the group is mature enough to handle mixing colors to make brown or black, the teacher can show them how to create these colors.

Assessment: Can the children name the colors that can be mixed together to create a new color?
