Green Colour

We started with exploring items with green today.

Teacher: Could you name me something in green around you?

Children: Tree…leaf…grass…broccoli….lady finger…

Teacher: Wow, you all can name quite a number. How about animals that is in green?

Children: Frog…crocodile (the children insisted that it’s in green)…turtle…caterpillar…

Teacher: Not bad.

Then I introduced a song on green.

There’s a colour we all know (Tune: Old MacDonald Had a Farm)

There’s a colour we all know

G-R-E-E-N

It’s the colour that means “Go!”

G-R-E-E-N

Oh, grass is green and lettuce is green,

Leaves and spinach and peas are green

There’s a colour we all know

G-R-E-E-N

We took some time to go through all the words and meaning in the song before we all sang it together.

Video Clip – A Colour of His Own

I have shared this story with the children from the book. At the same time, I also found an interesting video sharing the same book. So I let the children watched it so that they could understand the story better.
