Phase of the !roject :  There are four dierent phase of the project. Introduction:  The teacher will be giving a brief explantion about colors. &nd they will be taught of what is primary and secondary colors and how colors are playing major role in the day to day activity. Integration of the Subject: !tudents will be taught the detailed explanation regarding the integrated subjects of $nglish language arts %athematics, &rts $ducation, !cience.

Activit& and (emonstration : &ll !tudents will be provided the activity sheets based on the each lesson category to ensure the #nowledge ability and understanding of the subject.

Assessment: !tudents will be assessed after every lesson. $ach lesson will end with either an oral or written assessment. 'ain Content 1olors are in every part of our world. The theme of 1olors provides many avenues to explore the mixing and creation of  1olors, as well as to practice classifying and sorting s#ills. 1olors are also a vital part of the social interactions we have, and are an indicator of our uniqueness to be celebrated. 3escribe their world5human expression5health and well0being can be determined through colour as well. This unit will help students to concentrate on their own individual s#ills, observations, discoveries and preferences and will help students to embrace their unique self as well as the diversity among the class) *nglish +anguage Arts:  Throughout this unit we are going to focus on communication, reading and writing s#ills. The students are emergent readers and writers, so we are going to wor# on colour0speci6c sight words using word cards, poems, songs and boo#s. We will also practice our critical listening s#ills through listening to stories, instructions, each other, videos and music. We are also exploring communication through symbols and images through our artwor#s to be created during this unit. 'athematics: "n this unit the focus in mathematics will be on patterns, numeracy and number sense, and comparisons. The students will also experience data collection and analysis through the creation of a ribbon chart. The ribbon chart will be referred to

throughout the unit and used for assessment of understanding, as well as to create conversation about mathematics within the classroom. The students will also be given the chance to explore the concept of addition with 7color8 math9 the addition of two colors to equal a new colour.

Science: $xploration and experimentation are #ey focal points in this unit.  This unit is highly inquiry focused, and students will learn to observe their surroundings and explore what they 6nd. We will also explore and discover the science behind how a rainbow is formed in a rainstorm, and experiment to see if we can ma#e our own rainbows. This unit focuses on the discovery and investigation of the science curriculum. Arts *ducation:  The big question of this unit is 7What are the 1olors of our world:8, and this is the basis of the approach to arts in the classroom. We will spend time exploring and experimenting with colour and how colour can be used aesthetically. !tudents will be given a full half0day to explore questions such as 7How do " ma#e the colour pin#:8 or 71an you ma#e white:8 which were raised earlier by the students. We will also go through some visuali;ation0type experiences, where students are as#ed to thin# about their body parts5 starting at their feet and wor#ing up5and thin# about what colour each feels li#e. This is a more abstract concept than the students are used to, so " will wor# towards and understanding of how 1olors can represent feelings and then how to use colour to express those feelings.
