level 1 | mathematics | teachers | my-first-colors

Description

This activity contains 11 basic colors. Each color page has a jar (or “container”) with that unique color, as well as ~10 images of recognizable concepts to cut out.

The activity is simple: place the jars on the table and let the Apprentice sort the correct colors into the correct container! For example: the orange Fox should be placed onto the orange container.

The most common usage is to practice an Apprentice’s colors. But most of the jars and images employ basic shapes too (not all of them have a clearly defined shape), allowing you to play this sorting activity to practice shapes as well. Once an Apprentice can do that, they’re ready for the little board game attached to the pieces too!

Subject icon for mathematics

Subject: Mathematics

The curriculum is split into six main subjects that align with your typical school subjects.

This resource is part of the Mathematics subject. Below is a summary:

This subject teaches Mathematics from first principles to calculus. Level 1 explores the basic skills needed before you do any counting or see any numbers (such as grouping and comparing objects). Level 2(+) can then introduce numbers, counting, addition, multiplication, and more.

Faction icon for teachers

Faction: Teachers

This resource is part of the Teachers Faction.

But that's just one way to teach and explore its topic(s)!

You can always move to a different Faction to find a more effective way to teach the same topic.

Played a quiz? Try a game! Played a game? Try an escape room! And so on.

For example,

Charm: Activity Aid

This product is part of the Activity Aid charm.

Visit its main page to learn more about what that means. Below is a summary:

Activity Aids are tools to organize specific group activities or help create your own activities. In general, an activity is more loosely defined than a game, perhaps without objective or clear rules.

Spell: My First Colors

This resource is part of the My First Colors topic (or "spell").

To learn mathematics, you need to be able to identify, compare, and group things. Colors are the easiest way to do this, because they’re visual and all around you. Teaching about colors allows Apprentices to play games or do puzzles, as well as unlock their creativity by drawing.

This resource also covers other topics. To keep things simple, the curriculum always considers the first topic listed to be the most important.

Use the buttons below to navigate to the previous or next topic in the curriculum.

« Recognition & Discrimination My First Shapes »

Ready for the next step?

The Spell (or "educational topic") of this product is My First Colors.

Use the buttons to navigate to the next or previous Spell. It selects a product of the same type if possible. Otherwise it brings you to the overview page.

Try another approach?

The Faction (or "product type") of this product is Teachers.

This approach might work for some Apprentices but not for others! That's why we recommend exploring each topic in a variety of ways.

Maybe a (different) game works better? Or a quiz, story, or escape room? Below are some random suggestions.
