Introduction

Welcome to our exciting art lesson today, Year 2 explorers! Get ready to dive into a world full of colors, shapes, and creativity. To kick things off, we will embark on a colorful adventure that will spark our imaginations and get our creative juices flowing!

Activity: Color Hunt

Objective

Our goal is to explore different colors in our surroundings and discuss how they make us feel.

Materials Needed

• Color scavenger hunt checklist (provided by the teacher)
• Crayons or colored pencils
• A clipboard or a sturdy surface to write on

Instructions

1. Gather Around: Let’s start by gathering in our classroom. I’ll share with you a special color scavenger hunt checklist!

2. Go on a Hunt: You and your classmates will have 10 minutes to look around the classroom and find objects that match specific colors on your checklist.

   • Checklist Example:
     • Find something red
     • Find something blue
     • Find something green
     • Find something yellow

3. Draw and Share: Once you have collected colors, take out your crayons or colored pencils. On your paper, draw one of the objects you found. Write down how that color makes you feel!

Discussion

After we return, we will gather in a circle and share our colorful discoveries!

• Questions to Consider:
  • Which colors did you find the most?
  • How did each color make you feel?
  • Do you have a favorite color? Why?

Conclusion

This fun activity can spark our creativity and prepare us for our art lesson today! Remember, art is not just about what we create but also about how we feel during the process. Let’s get started on our colorful journey! 🌈🎨
