Learning to Mix Colours and Being A Learner

As part of our Painting we have been learning to mix primary colours together to make secondary colours.  Miss Collins gave us a blank fish and we had to paint the head starting with yellow and then add a little bit of red each time until we reached the tail which had to be red.  

So far we have learnt that...

RED + YELLOW = ORANGE

and

BLUE + YELLOW = GREEN

Here are some photos of use learning how to hold a paintbrush like a pencil, add a little of another colour and how to correctly apply paint onto paper.  We were painting superstars!  

Here is Lucas adding red to his yellow.

Cody is holding his paintbrush like a pencil.

Mualijcia is trying to add more yellow to her red to make it lighter.

Lupe is taking care with her painting and is painting each fish scale.

Micheal took care with his work.

Lorenzo held his paintbrush like a pencil.

Tredestiny is taking care with her work.

We enjoyed working together at one table
