In this engaging lesson plan designed for toddlers aged 2-4 years, students are introduced to the concepts of colors and shapes through hands-on activities focused on color mixing. The lesson begins with a discussion where children identify primary colors and learn about mixing them to create new hues. A color mixing demonstration follows, where students observe how combining colors transforms them.
Next, each child engages in a hands-on activity using primary colored paints to experiment with mixing, encouraging creativity and exploration. They also color worksheets featuring simple shapes, reinforcing their understanding of both colors and shapes.
The lesson concludes with a clean-up session and a group discussion, allowing children to share their experiences and insights. Optional extensions provide opportunities for continued exploration of color mixing and shape recognition throughout the week, fostering a vibrant and interactive learning environment that promotes cognitive development and fine motor skills.
